Voluntary Market Credits: Credibility in a Compliance Environment

A major point of discussion at the 4th Australia-New Zealand Climate Change & Business Conference in Auckland was the question of how a voluntary market might operate within a compliance environment. To provide clarification for delegates on the issue and the various perspectives referenced at the Conference, the Climate Change & Business Centre has prepared a summary overview, Voluntary Market Credits: Credibility in a Compliance Market

We invite interested parties to review the document and advise if they are interested in participating in an ongoing discussion on the topic in order to help provide clarity for policy-makers and governments.

Questions, feedback and registration of interest can be forwarded to secretariat@climateandbusiness.com
