About

Carbon markets is an academic concept and research field that examines economic mechanisms established to mitigate climate change by pricing greenhouse gas emissions and enabling the exchange of emission allowances or credits. This field investigates the design, implementation, performance, and socio-economic implications of such market-based instruments, including cap-and-trade systems and baseline-and-credit mechanisms, assessing their efficacy in achieving emission reduction targets, fostering technological change, and optimizing resource allocation.
