Emissions trading (also known as cap and trade) is a market-based approach to controlling pollution by providing economic incentives for achieving reductions in the emissions of pollutants. [1] A central authority (usually a governmental body) allocates or sells a limited number of permits to discharge specific quantities of a specific pollutant per time period. [2] A coalition of mid-Atlantic and Northeastern states and the District of Columbia on Tuesday released a draft plan for an ambitious cap-and-trade program to curb tailpipe emissions from cars The plan, called the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR), is designed to limit the tonnage of mercury that is released per year. The goal is to reduce mercury emissions from 48 tons per year to 38 tons per year in 2010 and 15 tons per year by 2018. A major component of the CAIR plan is a “Cap and Trade” provision.

The cap and trade program in Senate Bill 1530 would have regulated about 85 percent of the state’s greenhouse emissions. The governor’s plan “is going to be more expensive,” said Angus
