The Story of Cap & Trade is a fast-paced, fact-filled look at the leading climate solution being discussed at Copenhagen and on Capitol Hill. Host Annie Leonard introduces the energy traders and Wall Street financiers at the heart of this scheme and reveals the "devils in the details" in current cap and trade proposals: free permits to big polluters, fake offsets and distraction from whats really required to tackle the climate crisis. If youve heard about Cap & Trade, but arent sure how it works (or who benefits), this is the film is for you.

Today's news from the global warming front:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-15373071
"The Earth's surface really is getting warmer, a new analysis by a US scientific group set up in the wake of the 'Climategate' affair has concluded.
"The Berkeley Earth Project has used new methods and some new data, but finds the same warming trend seen by groups such as the UK Met Office and Nasa.
"The project received funds from sources that back organisations lobbying against action on climate change."

I say we just shut down some of these factories. Why not? Let Government use its power for good for once.
