You seem to be misinformed about what it means to be an expert, and who sells the credits in a cap and trade style system. For one thing, its incredibly difficult to be an expert in more than one field. Such as ... being an expert in the extraction of oil and being an expert in environmental macroeconomics.
As an example, Bill Nye is not an expert on climate change. Or space exploration. Or evolution. Or whatever else CNN has him talking about when they call him up. He is pretty knowledgeable in mechanical engineering, though given that he hasn't worked for Boeing in around 30 years I'm not sure if I'd even consider him an expert in that anymore. However, he
IS an expert in science communication. He knows how to break subjects down to such a degree that children or even cable news watchers can understand. But that does not make him an expert in the subjects he is talking about.
I'm done with this thread now. I've taken it too far off topic as is, not going to push it further.
