Imagine trying to fly American Airlines from Frankfurt to Chicago and
being delayed because AA needs to purchase some carbon “Allowances”
from easyJet. Or, your British Airways flight from London to Beijing is
cancelled because construction of a solar energy provider in South
Africa is delayed. Think this is farfetched? Try reality in four
years!
If the EU has its way, the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU
ETS) will incorporate aviation into the emission trading program by
2011, with all flights into the EU under the program by 2012.

Tracey Baden, founder of YourCarbonPrint.com, has created a resource to help readers understand the exploding new enterprise of carbon offset and emission trading. As an airline pilot, mother and involved citizen, Tracey turned her concern about the effects of global warming into action and uses the site to raise awareness in the United States regarding human carbon emissions and to present an overview of about mitigating the negative effects.
