Voluntary carbon market
The Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) allows companies and individuals to buy carbon credits to offset their emissions, with each credit representing one tonne of CO₂ reduced or removed. It helps finance climate projects like reforestation, renewable energy, and carbon removal technologies, while also supporting sustainable development goals. Despite its benefits, the VCM faces challenges such as quality concerns, transparency issues, and risks of greenwashing. The market is growing quickly, and with stronger standards and innovation, it can play an important role in achieving global Net Zero goals.
