FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 26, 2009 – The Environmental Markets Association (EMA) is pleased that the US House of Representatives has today chosen to employ a least-cost market-based cap and trade program to address US climate change issues in its American Clean Energy Security Act of 2009. Market-based systems have already proven to be a very successful policy tool in the US in addressing our acid rain and ozone problems to date.

We at EMA are also encouraging Congress to act immediately to restore the US Environmental Protection Agency's authority to use cap-and-trade mechanisms to address air pollution under the Clean Air Act, as it has been doing successfully since 1990.
