Carbon Credits- What are They?
The main ingredient of a carbon credit exchange is the idea of government cap and trade. Meaning the government sets a limit on how much Co2 a company can produce. The company can purchase credits from another company or Co2 fund. These credits are generally found on the exchanges. This trading has become quite a big business. As the idea of the exchanges grow, look for them to become for mainstream us by consumers. >More

Biofuels- 3rd Generation
As technology advances it seems that we sometimes over think problems. Biofuels have traditionally been made from ethanol, which has mostly been made from corn. This of course had major issues.
