Cap and Trade System - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
Cap-and-trade system: A cap-and-trade system is a market-based approach to controlling pollution by setting a cap on the total amount of emissions allowed and creating a market for emission permits. Emitters can buy and sell permits, which allows them to exceed the cap.
