Cap and Trade Comparison

Posted by Eric de Place
How federal US climate policies stack up.

Finally, it's all in one place. World Resources Institute just released a fabulous little summary that compares all the federal US cap and trade proposals. It's chock full of helpful (if slightly wonkish) graphics and tables, like this one:

The summary deals only with questions of "scope" -- which sectors of the economy are capped -- and the reduction schedules in each policy. There's no comparison of auctioning regimes or offsets or other market features. Still, it's pretty handy. 

Hat tip to Becky Kelley at Washington Environmental Council.
