New Democratic Party Platform 2004. Building the foundation for a green, clean energy future by creating the Canadian Climate Exchange, using market economics to generate revenue for green energy and sustainable development by auctioning off emission credits to corporations, with a steady decline of available credits over time. As the price for pollution credits rises, the financial incentive for corporations to pollute will decline, with the auction proceeds funding Canada's green energy transformation. 1, record 5, English, - Canadian%20Climate%20Exchange

Programme 2004 du Nouveau parti démocratique. Fonder notre avenir sur les énergies «vertes» et propres en créant une Bourse canadienne du climat qui respectera les réalités de l'économie de marché, afin de générer des revenus pour le développement des énergies «vertes» et renouvelables, en vendant aux enchères des crédits de pollution aux entreprises, dont le nombre diminuera progressivement avec le temps. Avec la hausse de la valeur des crédits de pollution, les entreprises trouveront de plus en plus coûteuses leurs activités polluantes. Les revenus de la vente aux enchères serviront à financer l'adoption par le Canada des énergies «vertes». 1, record 5, French, - Bourse%20canadienne%20du%20climat
