Publisher Description

A new currency is emerging in world markets. Unlike the dollars, euros and yen that trade for tangible goods and human services, this new money exchanges for pollution--particularly emissions of carbon dioxide, which are caused by burning fossil fuels and are the leading cause of global climate change. Carbon credits, as they are called, are poised to transform the world energy system and thus the world economy. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]
