QC981.8.C5.M58 no.69 Emissions trading Greenhouse gases Global warming Climatic changes Abstract in HTML and technical report in PDF available on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change website (http://mit.edu/globalchange/www/) Includes bibliographical references (p. 38-39). This paper is written as part of a two-year study of climate change policy choices facing Sweden, conducted under the auspices of the Center for Business and Policy Studies in Stockholm. As such, it aims to be a primer on emissions trading as an instrument for limiting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions under the Kyoto Protocol to the Framework Convention on Climate Change. The first section notes general considerations concerning emissions trading, particularly in relation to climate policy. The second section explains the many forms of emissions trading included in the Kyoto Protocol. The third section provides a brief review of emissions trading proposals that have been advanced in Europe as of mid-2000. The fourth section addresses issues in the design and implementation of a national GHG emissions trading system. The brief conclusion is followed by an appendix, which draws applicable lessons concerning the choice and design of a cap and trade system from the U.S. SO2 emissions trading program. 2003-10-24T14:56:11Z 2003-10-24T14:56:11Z 2000-11 no. 69 http://mit.edu/globalchange/www/abstracts.html#a69 http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/3576 eng Report no. 69 http://mit.edu/globalchange/www/abstracts.html#a69 39 p. 330015 bytes application/pdf application/pdf MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change
