(PRWEB) June 10, 2007 -- Coracle Online Ltd and energy market expert and author Tom James launch online E-learning and E-Resource for the Global Energy and Emissions markets.
Renowned energy market expert and author, Tom James and Coracle Online Ltd are pleased to announce the launch of their online E-learning and E-Resource for the Global Energy and Emissions markets.

Inspired by the book "Energy and Emissions: Collision or Convergence", by Tom James and best selling author of "What Went Wrong at Enron", Peter C. Fusaro, this new online resource contains powerful content on Energy and Emissions, a significant issue facing the global markets.
Through the implementation of Carbon trading schemes, the emission of Carbon and other Greenhouse gasses can adversely affect a company's financial performance if not properly managed: companies face a choice of either cutting emissions or buying the right to maintain their emissions levels. As a result, alternative cleaner technologies are being developed to address this global issue.
In June 2007, business leaders from the Energy industry called for companies to help tackle climate change through global carbon markets. Speaking ahead of the G8 summit the individuals appealed for a market in which carbon prices were transparent and consistent and called for a single worldwide price for carbon emissions. Supporting these initiatives, the newly appointed Chief Executive of BP, Tony Hayward, was recently quoted: "I believe that unlocking the ability of a competitive market to innovate and change behaviours will achieve the lowest cost solution to climate change."
In addition, an announcement on June 7 from the Chairmen of the Round Table of International Shipping Associations (BIMCO, ICS/ISF, INTERCARGO and INTERTANKO) reviewed a number of current issues, including the need for more stringent air pollution standards. The Chairmen stressed the importance of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) maintaining its leading role in developing measures to address the shipping industry's contribution to global warming and reduction in the generation of Greenhouse gases.
www.energyandemissions.com provides an opportunity to learn about Carbon trading and other Emissions Markets and features a powerful E-resource with data search tools giving quick and easy access to information relevant to this sector.
James Tweed, MD of Coracle, said: "We are very excited to have launched this new information E-Resource today. Coracle provides online training courses and podcasts for professionals and we believe this resource will help those who need to understand the history, structure and contracts used and the future of the Energy and Emissions market. With the G8 looking to reduce global emissions by 50% by 2050, there has never been a better time to provide leading information on such an important issue."
Prof. Tom James commented "I welcome the opportunity to work with Coracle, which is an experienced and successful deliverer of E-learning and E-resource packages. I am delighted that we could produce such a valuable online resource at a time when industry, senior management, investors, traders and researchers around the world need to get up to speed on this crucial topic."
