The Future of Carbon Credit Markets

Counsel Ellie Dawson will be speaking as part of a panel at the American Bar Association’s “The Future of Carbon Credit Markets.” This webinar will discuss the carbon credit market and the intensifying frenzy that is currently playing out against a backdrop of inconsistent regulatory compliance and voluntary market regimes, with divergent carbon credit qualification standards. The panel will explore questions such as: What are the greatest challenges in establishing a mature carbon market akin to other commodities and securities markets? How can we bring greater transparency, scale, and consistency to the carbon markets? Who are the critical actors to drive the needed changes? What regulatory and legal challenges lay ahead? Who are the key stakeholders driving greater effectiveness, transparency, and consistency in the voluntary markets? What actions and commitments are needed from these players? How should the legal community interface with the scientific community to optimize outcomes?
