We cover: -The evolving role of carbon credits in clean energy financing -Why Europe is surging ahead despite geopolitical challenges -How U.S. policy reversals—like the exit from the Paris Agreement and rollback of IRA incentives—are affecting international climate action -What’s next for voluntary and compliance carbon markets -The gap between carbon pricing theory and how funds are actually being deployed -Why investors may be pausing but not pulling out of carbon markets As the U.S. steps back, the rest of the world keeps moving.
