Cap‐and‐trade schemes have been proposed to control carbon emissions that are said to cause climate change. But what issues must be resolved to implement a cap‐and‐trade system? What accounting issues need to be addressed? And what types of fraud might such a system produce? The authors take a critical look at these problems. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
