Carbon credits are a key component of national and international attempts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon credits were created as a result of increasing awareness of the need to control greenhouse gas concentrations from organizations like the IPCC. The concept of carbon trading emerged from agreements like the 1992 Rio Agreement, the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, and subsequent norms for carbon trading that came into force in 2005. The Kyoto Protocol established mechanisms for carbon trading between countries to meet emissions reduction targets cost effectively. Carbon credit trading is now a large, growing financial market worth billions and projected to become the world's largest commodity market. Major players in the carbon credit market include banks, companies implementing internal cap and trade systems, the EU ETS, and exchanges like the

• Green house effect:- • Carbon dioxide methane, nitrogen oxide , chloroform carbon are known as green house gases. • these green house gases make a shield like layer between the atmosphere and the earth . this layer work like a woollen blanket. It absorbs the heat of the sun. This layer transparent. so the rays of the sun pass through it and reach the earth. Ozone layer Carbon credit
Carbon credits are a key component of national and international
attempts to mitigate the growth in concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs). One Carbon Credit is equal to one ton of Carbon. The concept of carbon credits came into existence as a result of increasing awareness of the need for controlling emissions has observed by The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). The Beginning ... 1:-Dramatic loss of ozone in the lower stratosphere over Antarctica was first noticed in the 1970s by a research group from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS). Halley Bay station Antarctica 2:-The RIO AGREEMENT in 1992.
3:- The KYOTO PROTOCOL in 1997 in Japan.
4:-Came into force in 2005 with carbon
trading norms. Kyoto protocol • Joint Implementation (JI) a developed country with relatively high costs of domestic greenhouse reduction would set up a project in another developed country. • The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) a developed country can 'sponsor' a greenhouse gas reduction project in a developing country where the cost of greenhouse gas reduction project activities is usually much lower, but the atmospheric effect is globally equivalent. The developed country would be given credits for meeting its emission reduction targets, while the developing country would receive the capital investment and clean technology beneficial change in land use. • International Emissions Trading (IET) countries can trade in the international carbon credit market to cover their shortfall in allowances. Countries with surplus credits can sell them to countries with capped emission commitments under the Kyoto Protocol. Carbon Credit Trading
• Managing emissions is one of the fastest-growing
segments in financial services with a market now worth about €30 billion, but which could grow to €1 trillion within a decade. Louis Redshaw, head of environmental markets at Barclays Capital predicts that "Carbon will be the world's biggest commodity market, and it could become the world's biggest market overall." Key Players • Bank of America is a leader in carbon-reduction strategies. The bank recently launched a $20 billion, 10- year initiative to finance emission-reduction projects, invest in green technology, and facilitate carbon-credit trading. • BG is among the most well-known Company The company assigned its 150 units an emissions quota and allowed them to buy and sell carbon credits among themselves. • The European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS). • The Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX).
