I've been reading a comic strip in the Sunday papers for some months now. It's not my favourite strip -- sometimes I haven't even a clue what its message is.
Yesterday, however, it's energy to the light bulb above my head.
I previously never understood the significance of the cap and trade system applied on carbon emission limits. I read about Japan's plan to purchase carbon offsets from east Europe and wondered why it was news. Perhaps I never thought hard enough about it. But now it's quite clear, and it's nothing like people buying carbon offsets for their flights.
Well, if I were running the place, it'd be all cap no trade. Yes, I'm quite the tyrant. Kudos to Mr Rickard.
