| Comment | Cap and Trade is just a form of buying one's way out of reducing carbon use. Allowing speculation in such markets further removes the process from the goal of reducing carbon use. There is enough carbon at present to raise sea levels 3 meet, if we could magically turn off the carbon switch today. California has over 1,000 miles of coastal lands and inland lowlands that will be severely impacted by sea level rise. At the minimum California should remove speculation from its cap and trade program so that its effectiveness can be measured, and so that incentives for maintaining a program that will not work will be removed. |
