Joyce Foundation, Sourcewatch: "The Joyce Foundation is a key progenitor of carbon dioxide cap and trade. In 2000 the Foundation issued a $347,600 grant to Richard Sandor for a study on the feasibility of a cap and trade mechanism. In 2001 the Foundation issued a $760,100 grant to the J. L. Kellog School of Management at Northwestern University, working with Sandor, to fund the design of the Carbon Climate Exchange, otherwise known as the CCX. The CCX mechanism has been adopted by European carbon credit exchanges.
