What are Carbon Credits?
Carbon credits are a type of market-based instrument designed to encourage businesses and individuals to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
The concept behind carbon credits is that each unit represents a certain amount of greenhouse gas emissions that have been avoided or offset. For example, if a company reduces its emissions by one metric tonne of CO2 equivalent, it can generate one carbon credit. These credits can then be sold within accredited marketplaces, with the proceeds going back to the company to offset the costs of its emission-reduction efforts. In addition to providing a financial incentive for businesses to reduce their emissions, carbon credits also help to create a market for greenhouse gas reductions.
As more businesses and countries begin buying and selling carbon credits, the price of each credit is likely to increase, providing an additional incentive for companies to invest in emission-reduction technologies.
