Why This Matters
Understanding carbon markets is not optional for climate finance work.
Carbon markets put a price on emissions and create financial incentives to reduce them, which determines where climate money flows and what returns investors can expect. Meeting global net-zero goals will take trillions of dollars a year in clean-energy investment, far more than governments and development banks can cover alone, and carbon markets are one of the primary mechanisms built to pull in the private capital that closes that gap.
Who This Is For
  • Climate finance and sustainability professionals who need to understand where carbon revenue fits
  • Project developers who want to know how carbon credits can make a project financially viable
  • Investment, lending and insurance professionals factoring carbon risk into decisions
  • Anyone who needs to move from hearing the term "carbon credit" to actually working with the concept
