Carbon credits are a key component of national and international emissions trading schemes that have been implemented to mitigate global warming. They provide a way to reduce greenhouse effect emissions on an industrial scale by capping total annual emissions and letting the market assign a monetary value to any shortfall through trading. Credits can be exchanged between businesses or bought and sold in international markets at the prevailing market price. Credits can be used to finance carbon reduction schemes between trading partners and around the world.

There are also many companies that sell carbon credits to commercial and individual customers who are interested in lowering their carbon footprint on a voluntary basis. These carbon offsetters purchase the credits from an investment fund or a carbon development company that has aggregated the credits from individual projects. The quality of the credits is based in part on the validation process and sophistication of the fund or development company that acted as the sponsor to the carbon project. This is reflected in their price; voluntary units typically have less value than the units sold through the rigorously-validated Clean Development Mechanism

The World's Biggest Market

Carbon has the potential, as stated in the NY Times article, to become the world's biggest market. Here's why.

Consider this: Every year humans generate about 38 billion tons of carbon dioxide. Now take a look at a chart of the price of carbon on the Chicago Climate Exchange:

At its current price of about $3.50 per ton, the potential carbon market stands at roughly $133 billion (38 billion x $3.50).

But only a fraction of those emissions are regulated.

As more and more governments start to regulate their country's emissions, and as more companies--just as we're seeing in the US--start to voluntarily limit their emissions, the demand for available carbon credits will skyrocket. And so will their price!

One need only revert to the simple law of supply and demand to see that this industry is going to be huge. If increased demand dictates an increase in price, getting in now could be one of the wisest investment moves you make in the first half of this century.
