Abstract

Carbon markets, which enable the trading of emission reductions and incentivize companies to reduce their carbon footprint, are a vital weapon in the fight against climate change. However, problems like fraud and double counting have dogged previous carbon markets. Blockchain technology presents a viable means of boosting trust and transparency in emissions trading, a crucial part of carbon markets. Blockchain can solve problems like a lack of accountability and transparency that have hindered the efficiency of carbon markets by offering a decentralized, safe platform for monitoring and confirming emissions data. This integration might make trading carbon credits easier, encouraging companies to adopt sustainable practices and aiding in the shift to a low-carbon economy. This chapter contributes to initiatives to mitigate climate change by highlighting the potential and challenges for blockchain adoption in carbon markets, underscoring the necessity of global cooperation, legal frameworks, and technological advancements to reap the full rewards of this game-changing technology
