The Kyoto Protocol is the first step towards stabilising global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2). But what is carbon regulation and what actions are required by companies striving to limit the enhanced greenhouse effect?

Many countries, business organisations and individuals appear to be woefully ill prepared to meet the challenges posed by the new paradigm of 'carbonomics'.
