The EU is preparing to allow the use of international carbon credits towards its 2040 target, a major policy shift. At the same time, the EU is also establishing a domestic carbon crediting scheme: the CRCF.

But this raises some important questions:

▪️ What kinds of credits should be eligible?

▪️ How can the EU ensure integrity when engaging in international credits?

▪️ How do the PACM and the CRCF compare in terms of integrity?

To unpack what this all means in practice - from the design of the rules to which credit types could qualify - co-hosts Eve Tamme and Sebastian Manhart chat with the brilliant Lambert Schneider, Research Coordinator for International Climate Policy at Oeko-Institut, and a climate policy veteran.
