Abstract
Over the past decade, carbon trading has emerged as the centrepiece of official efforts to address global warming. This chapter tells the story of how corporations, financial institutions, academics, governments, United Nations agencies and some environmentalists came to promote a neoliberal, market-based approach to climate change emanating from the United States.
