emission allowances
Emission allowances are permits or rights granted to companies or entities that allow them to emit a certain amount of pollutants, such as greenhouse gases, into the environment. These allowances are usually issued by governments as a measure to regulate and limit the overall level of pollution, and can be traded among businesses to help achieve emission reduction targets.
