The American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES), also known as the Waxman-Markey bill, features a national cap and trade plan. The bill passed in the House at the end of June and will be up for debate in the Senate in September. I’ll be blogging about ACES, its progress through the Senate, and its implementation if it passes.
ACES raises lots of rich questions–How will the passage of the bill play out in the development of a post-Kyoto scheme? How will the proposed emissions reductions in the U.S. compare to the rising emissions in China and India?–that I’ll be exploring over the next few months.
