America should lead the world on tackling global warming and climate change. What could the Presidential candidates' cap and trade policies really mean for the US and the world?

In Australia planning for an emissions trading scheme is well underway. The Garnaut Climate Change Review's draft report has been released and makes for sobering reading. This video has highlights from a briefing by Ross Garnaut in Melbourne on 9 July 2008.

There is a lot of misinformation about both the science and the economic impact of global warming, which needs to be refuted.

It’s the sort of discussion that should be going on across the US right now. The world cannot afford another failure of leadership like the one we saw from the G8 and George W.Bush in particular last week. Big business and special interess should not be allowed to set the agenda and skuttle any meaningful rectification of rcarbon emssions like they did to Kyoto.

It must be a major part of the election debate.
