ABSTRACT
The title of this book, Carbon Markets: An International Business Guide, takes as its premise that business will play a key role in reducing greenhouse emissions. At the most basic level, carbon markets seek to turn the tables for business on climate change. Rather than seeing industry only as the culprit of environmental damage to be punished through taxes or regulations, carbon markets give business an opportunity to be environmental champions, harnessing the more positive power of innovation and entrepreneurship through the chance to make money from reducing emissions.
