Description

Why don’t voluntary or compliance carbon offset markets work? The numbers simply don’t add up. A lack of connection between the certificates and the physical inventory means that both parties—the seller and buyer—take credit for a reduction in emissions. And this double counting (issuing two certificates for a single credit) leads to a surplus of certificates under which the associated markets crash and burn. The good news is, the blockchain will allow us to start over and do the math correctly.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/reversingclimatechange/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/reversingclimatechange/support
