That idea was international emissions trading. Now, a new set of international standards may help it take off. — Through international emissions trading, countries unable to reduce enough greenhouse gas emissions through conventional methods would be able to purchase credits from other countries that implemented emission-reduction projects such as afforestation. Alongside these large-scale “compliance” markets…

[ad_1] Edward Lotterman Economic news for our nation this past week has not been good. In his erstwhile self-appointed role as the fourth branch of government, Elon Musk condemned the budget bill finally passed by the House but stalled in the Senate. Such criticism by a billionaire egomaniac capable of funding primary challengers to anyone defying his order may not intimidate every senator. But apparently it can scare enough of them to stall the bill — the legitimate flaws in the legislation notwithstanding. Thus a spending bill that would pile on trillions more in U.S. debt and should have been…
