Trading on Thin Air

Trading on Thin Air is a thoughtful documentary about carbon credit trading. It does an excellent job explaining banking and carbon trading without entering into the debate of whether or not man kind is causing climate change. There is no doubt that our climate is changing, the only question about climate change is what we can do about it. With around 7 billion people on the planet we need to find solutions for the natural stress we are putting on the planet, not just solutions for carbon. Trading on Thin Air explores the downside to involving the financial markets in finding the solution to climate change; carbon has become a money making commodity.
