How climate policy is driving carbon markets

In this webcast, EY carbon market professionals and a vice-chair of Paris Agreement Article 6.4 Supervisory Body discuss how global climate policy developments will impact the existing voluntary carbon market (VCM) at the national and intergovernmental levels. They will also discuss how the VCM will interplay with cooperative approaches for emissions reductions introduced by Article 6 of the Paris Agreement (Paris-aligned market). Speakers will summarize the status of the Paris-aligned market after COP27 and explore developments expected at COP28.

Topics to be discussed include:

• Carbon markets development to date, including the evolution from the Kyoto Protocol to COP26
• The carbon markets landscape after COP27, including the interplay among the VCM, compliance markets and the nascent Paris-aligned market
• Insights from the Supervisory Body on Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement
• How changes in carbon markets will impact business
• The outlook on COP28 in Dubai
