Summary
My Clean Sky's view on the role of carbon offsets in addressing climate change"The voluntary carbon offset market creates opportunity for innovative entrepreneurs and 'softens the ground' for Government to be bolder in mandating emissions reductions. Carbon offset forms a voluntary tax and helps shift the normative values about the externalities of greenhouse gas emissions. The voluntary carbon offset industry also creates a forum to discuss important issues and considerations that will improve understanding and Standards formation in the future."
