carbon markets and trading systems
Carbon markets and trading systems refer to a mechanism where greenhouse gas emissions, specifically carbon dioxide, are traded, bought, and sold among companies and organizations. It aims to create financial incentives for reducing emissions by allowing those who reduce their emissions to sell their surplus allowances to those who exceed their emissions limits. This system helps encourage sustainable practices and overall reduction of carbon emissions.
