To back that up let's suppose a co-op buys all of the 250,000 allowances. The average of $272 would suddenly go up. Thus making it harder for the industry leaders to buy them. Or maybe the other way around, harder for us to buy them.
That's not really fair. The conservationists would then have to have the funding to move them trees. What would it come to if the conservationists just said F-it i'm going to chop down these trees so that no one else can use them.
Let's suppose they start a slow plan, like a 10 year plan to chop them down. They might be able to get away with that. Then they can stall the process by trying to find environmental sound / safe equipment. Hmm..
I think that the majority of people haven't picked up on this yet, even though it's been around for 10 years. This is because there are still millions of blinking VCR lights...
I agree with you, what is the purpose b/c the govt will turn around and release more. The govt is all for major industries that use pollutants, like energy sources, etc. If the public were too buy them all up they would turn around and rerelease more "blocks".
Now let's suppose that a large group, like a co-op gets together and buys everything, all of the EPA auctions. Would society collectively turn it's head and say "hey, let's find a new source of energy, or a new source of whatever". I think that would be an interesting day...

Many many people will soon flock to Sicily to see the virgin Mary.
Sadly, in the news, a number of faithful Catholics have suddenly burst into flames today.
