What party lines? They are the same. Swap "global warming" for "terrorism" and the policies, rhetoric and all other things are identical.
And no, it's nothing to do with putting catalytic converters on cars. Try to understand what carbon trading is. Its a hand-over of the right to use energy to the government. The government will issue energy-use permits to companies and people who follow its party line.
What you could very easily end up with is individual carbon allowances -- essentially a communistic issuance of licenses replacing the right to produce value. The hand-over of power is simply enormous, and you clearly don't understand just how much this will fuck your life.
