Unveiling Carbon Markets

In the quest to meet the ambitious targets set by the Paris Agreement, the economic sector has emerged as a pivotal player in the global effort to combat climate change. Central to this endeavor are carbon market systems, designed to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and uphold environmental integrity. However, a closer examination reveals a complex landscape fraught with challenges and unintended consequences. This project delves into the intricate workings of carbon markets, particularly their reliance on forestry credits and programs like REDD+. Through case studies and insightful visualizations, it showcases the policy nuances, loopholes, and repercussions associated with these mechanisms. By amplifying the voices of expert organizations, indigenous communities, and NGOs, the project advocates for climate mitigation proposals that prioritize environmental justice and human rights. Ultimately, it aims to foster informed discourse and inspire action towards more sustainable and equitable climate solutions.
