Voluntary versus compliance carbon markets - where are the pastures greener? - Zurich CMA

Perspectives and KliK organize a Zurich Carbon Market Association event "Voluntary versus compliance carbon markets - where are the pastures greener?" on Wednesday, 9 December 2020, 5-7 pm CET.
Views of stakeholders regarding the future of voluntary carbon markets diverge. Some expect a massive expansion of the voluntary markets while compliance markets would languish due to the inability to agree on Article 6 rules. Others see governments becoming more conscious of the need to achieve their Nationally Determined Contribution and therefore reining in on the voluntary market in the medium term. Views differ as well regarding the need to apply corresponding adjustments for voluntary markets. Our event brings together representatives of all key stakeholder types for a discussion of these issues.
Moderation by Axel Michaelowa (Perspectives and University of Zurich)
