As the fight against climate change intensifies, carbon markets are playing an increasingly fundamental role in helping companies — and the world — achieve net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions.
The trading of carbon credits can help influence business decisions and actions to decarbonize. This enables corporates to meet ambitious climate goals, thereby, accelerating the transition to a lower-carbon future.
This publication, the third of a series between Bank of Singapore and EY, discusses how carbon markets can help in the global effort to address climate change through the lens of Business Owners, Investors and Philanthropists.
