Watch Resilient LLP’s Lisa DeMarco discuss important developments and insights on voluntary carbon markets during her interview on SmartMarkets™ as part of IETA’s 2023 North American Climate Summit (NACS) last September at Climate Week New York City. The interview explores the role of carbon markets to support corporate climate action and the need for increased (i) integrity, (ii) excellence and transparency, and (iii) ambition, and highlights the important work of the Integrity Council for Voluntary Carbon Markets and the Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity Initiative to support and provide confidence to corporates and others to credibly use emission units, emission reduction units and removals towards emissions reduction targets. SmartMarkets™ has also compiled a selection of its NACS interviews (including Lisa’s interview) into a special episode (available here) covering how carbon markets support corporate strategy for climate action; how the challenges to operationalize the Article 6 markets, as well as the challenges to the reputation and growth of the voluntary carbon markets, affect corporate strategies; and what were the most important ideas being discussed at NACS.
