Participants from around the world attended this conference and trade show jointly organized by the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) and Koelnmesse. The event shows an increasing interest and demand for a carbon trading market in the United States both as a critical step in regulating CO2 emissions to combat climate change and as a multi-billion dollar commodity industry. Photos include: Opening plenary with video address by Senator Diane Fienstein followed by speeches by Halldor Thorgeirsson (Director, Sustainable Development Mechanisms, UNFCCC), James Cameron (Vice Chairman, Climate Change Capital), Nancy McFadden (Senior Vice President, Public Affairs, PG&E), and Henry Derwent (President & CEO, IETA); trade show exhibit booths; and Forum participants.
