states (Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin) and one Canadian province (Manitoba). Another potential use of allowance value is to provide the general public a “dividend” related to the public’s having granted firms the right to make use of the waste-disposal services of the atmosphere through their emissions.
By the way Boones plan covers: Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, and North Dakota. Boone Pickens plan, which states that using all the wind power capacity from northern Texas to the Canadian border would produce AS MUCH AS 20%. He states this as a positive of his program.
