The article presents the views of readers on the issues of cap-and-trade program in the U.S. and global warming. One reader says the whole global warming thing is made up and promoted by people looking to get rich off of it. A reader notes that if cap-and-trade is part of a strategy to wean off fossil fuels, then it must be implemented. Another reader believes that if humankind does not prevent the rapid increase of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, then thousands of species will become extinct.
