Your Call 060809 Can market-based approaches effectively combat global warming?

Can market-based approaches effectively combat global warming? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about energy and climate bill moving through congress. It aims to control greenhouse gas emissions in a proposed cap-and-trade program. Is this a reason to be optimistic? Send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org or join us live at 11 am. What circumstances make effective cap-and trade systems possible and are there better solutions? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Joseph Romm, a physicist and senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, where he writes and maintains their climate blog.

John Reilly, an energy, environmental and agricultural economist at M.I.T.

Liz Perera, climate policy specialist with the Union of Concerned Scientists.
