Where there's no muck, there's still brass

The EU's attempts to clean up industrial air polluters has seen the emergence of the CO2 emissions trading market and a new opportunity for hedge fund managers

EU carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions trading started experimentally in the middle of 2004, with the official market opening in January 2005.
