Center Promotes Revolutionary Green Capitalism: Cap-and-Trade

Via Carbon Mercantile Exchange

Some environmental and other groups signed a "Declaration" calling on the U.S. Senate to take swift action on clean energy and climate. A Climate Rally is scheduled on April 25 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the first Earth Day. The Center will be lobbying hard to pass a Cap-and-Trade program in the 111th Congress. We are also promoting a revolutionary Carbon Mercantile Exchange (CMX) to directly leverage CO2 reductions. Former Vice President Al Gore isn't the only one who intends to demonstrate that one can get rich while implementing innovative solutions to mitigate destructive climate change.
