Global Challenges
Workshop: Getting Carbon Market Governance right from Day One
Coordinator: Dr. Gernot Wagner, Economist, Environmental Defense Fund, New York, United States
Climate change will not be solved by blocking market forces. Good policy requires us to channel them in the right direction. The best such policy is to cap greenhouse gas pollution and create a market for emissions reductions.
This panel aims to build on the experience of the US trading program for sulphur dioxide, which successfully solved the acid rain problem, and takes key lessons from the EU’s trading program for carbon dioxide and the UN’s offset mechanisms under the Kyoto Protocol to draw conclusions for good policy design for the emerging global carbon market.
How to ensure transparency and accountability from the start? What makes carbon markets unique? What makes them no different from other commodity or financial markets? Who is ultimately in charge? Who ought to be? Which oversight role is there for the UN versus US, EU and other developed and developing country governments and institutions?
Despite early successes and valuable experience, carbon markets are still at the cusp of taking off internationally. By identifying the right questions to ask and providing first answers, this workshop will aim to help frame governance in the right light from day one.
