You mean by not driving makes everyone poorer, except Al Gore’s carbon credit scheme to make him rich?
Al Fraud Gore.
BVMP!
Algor’s cash cow has gone dry. How sad.
Is this the same market that, IIRC, crashed once before in Europe? Haven’t they already reduced the number of *free* credits given out, in order to prop up the market?
I get so confused.
That’s too bad for Goldman Suchs (a major carbon-scheme investor) and recipients of its campaign cash (70% Dims, 30% Pubs.)
Bush and the Bush-Haters What a contrast with the Obama worship!

I wonder if obama is going to go ahead with his plans to carbon tax coal power plants into oblivion.
Ohh WOE is me... whys everybody pickin on me???
Under the EU's mandatory emission trading system - set up in 2005 and still by far the largest such scheme in the world - power plants and other CO2-intensive industries can buy emission allowances that allow them to exceed their government-allocated CO2 caps... At close of trading on 19 January, allowances to emit one extra tonne of CO2 in 2009 were selling at just €11.65 (US$15.32) on European exchanges that trade carbon, such as the European Energy Exchange (EEX) in Leipzig, Germany (see graph). The price of allowances saw a recent peak of above €30 in July 2008, but falling oil and gas prices have encouraged electricity generators to switch from burning coal to cleaner natural gas, reducing demand for emission allowances... The EU's emission trading system is due to be reformed in 2013 to reduce the amount of free allowances handed out to companies.Thanks neverdem.
