Which would be of greater benefit: a cap and trade system to limit CO2 production or an RPS approach? Recently I have been reading about the resistance of large utilities to buy into a national RPS as a means of limiting CO2 emissions, they tend to prefer a cap and trade approach to the matter. Their concern is being forced into certain technology choices and would prefer to be given CO2 caps and chose how they will meet (or trade) them. What are the pros and cons of each approach? Does there seem to be a best choice for the nation at this time? Thanks. -- Gary J., Cleveland, Ohio
