Overview of Carbon Credits

• Definition of carbon credits


A carbon credit is a tradable certificate or permit that represents the right
to emit one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) or an equivalent amount
of another greenhouse gas.

• Importance in addressing climate change


The concept is rooted in emissions trading programs designed to mitigate
climate change by putting a price on carbon emissions.

Carbon Credit Market Landscape

• Differentiating compliance and voluntary


markets
voluntary carbon credit markets where individuals, businesses, and
organizations can voluntarily offset their carbon footprints by purchasing
credits.

• Explanation of cap and trade systems


Carbon credits are often part of cap and trade systems, where a regulatory
body sets a cap on the total allowable greenhouse gas emissions within a
specified time frame. The total cap is divided into permits, each
representing a certain amount of emissions. Companies that emit less
than their allocated permits can sell excess permits as carbon credits,
while those exceeding their limits must purchase additional permits.

These standards, such as the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) or the Gold
Standard, define rigorous criteria for the development and

Third-party verifiers assess projects against these standards to certify the
legitimacy of the credits generated.
