Incentives for Carbon Credit Participation
Companies should be incentivized to participate in voluntary carbon markets (VCMs) by being rewarded for purchasing carbon credits rather than facing criticism. Engaging in these markets can help businesses meet their net zero goals and drive climate action while contributing to significant climate impact. The speaker emphasizes that with the right rules and incentives in place, all stakeholders can align their efforts towards improving quality and integrity in the carbon credit system. Investing in these markets is crucial as they present a pathway for companies to play an important role in combating climate change.
