John McCain, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, the three big candidates left in the presidential race, all support cap and trade as the primary means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Clinton and Obama call for 80% reductions from 1990 levels and McCain's proposal is less. But what IS cap and trade you ask? Good question! As Joe over at Climate Progress points out, the Center for American Progress has a very nice, clear explanation of what it is. Take a look. It'll only take you a minute.
