Well many economists and politicians have looked at both the cost of reducing GHGs and the cost of not reducing GHGs, not many have publically looked at the opportunity afforded by GHG reduction.
But apparently big business has...
As reported here, TXU will be acquired by a massive financial conglamurate, for the world's largest acquisition ever. Out of that comes a promise from the conglamurate to bury the proposal of building 8 of 11 coal-fired plants. Clearly a very financially savvy group thinks there is money in other alternative sources.
Other mergers have happened as well in energy and emissions management. A euro/american merger of carbon-credit trading companies was announced here today. Mergers and acquisitions could be early indicators of a blooming industry where profits are expected.
Trading-wise, Wall Street has also jumped on board with several emerging technology funds for investing in green technologies:
PowerShares Wilderhill Clean Energy Portfolio (PBW)
PowerShares Wilderhill Progressive Energy Portfolio (PUW)
PowerShares CleanTech Portfolio (PZD)
The three funds have all had recent gains upwards of 6% as reported here.
And if Green seems to risky there are a number of 'sustainable business' investing options such as the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Fund.
On top of that there is no shortage of green investment advisors on the web:
SustainableBusiness.com keeps a handy track of the top 100 Sustainable Stocks and outlines global green investments topped $30B last year!
GreenMoneyJournal.com offers a slew of green investing advice.
And so on.
The morale of the story is that money will be made in the green movement. Just like the boom of the internet, we're seeing the early stages of a green crest, an enabling 'technology' that will create more jobs in a new sector and massive economical transformation. Much like in the industrial era, jobs were lost but new and better jobs were found. Oil & gas profiteers and government bureaucrats need to get out of the way and let the market take its course.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.
