Summary
Proponents of the mechanism propose what they consider to be an ideal initial carbon allowance and ideal annual percentage rate of reduction for the allowance. Adverse changes to those numbers may be made by lawmakers in establishing the law. In subsequent years, lawmakers may relax the requirements to accommodate backlash from flyers and the industry. A hollow mechanism could be the outcome, due to the nature of the mechanism and political opportunity to manipulate it.
