Webinar: Climate Policy 101: An Introduction for Local Government Officials to Cap-and-Trade Systems
ICLEI USA and Climate Communities invite you to join local government officials from across America to learn: How does a cap-and-trade system work to limit greenhouse gas emissions? What are allowances, auctions and offsets? Who would be regulated? What are the major economic, social and environmental implications of the cap-and-trade approach? How would local governments benefit from proposed federal cap-and-trade policy? What are the prospects for federal cap-and-trade legislation in the 111th Congress?
