Let's say… you're a DJ. And you're pretty progressive, so you think about things like the carbon footprint you leave, flying between gigs. DJs Against Climate Change has a green solution to the dilemna. The group calculates the carbon emissions you generate, and helps offset those emissions by contributing to projects that remove or prevent greenhouse gases.
Though DJs Against Climate Change focuses on DJs, the idea of a voluntary, industry-localized version of cap-and-trade could be applied to any business that generates greenhouse gasses. It can also be implemented without a super-majority in Congress, and would allow individual awareness to be translated directly into action.
