EU Carbon Market Is at Risk of Total Collapse, Lawmaker Says
By Ewa Krukowska - Jan 22, 2013

China has the capacity to lead in carbon trading
Pilot schemes launched this year could be the start of a world-class system — if the country can solve its data-gathering problems, says Qiang Wang.

Carbon markets
Complete Disaster in the Making

Sep 15th 2012 |
WHAT would you say about a market that has helped reduce carbon emissions by a billion tonnes in seven years, attracted $215 billion of green investments to developing countries (more than any private environmental fund) and cut the cost of climate-change mitigation by $3.6 billion? The answer, to judge by a United Nations panel looking into the workings of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is: you’d say it is a shambles.
