What are Carbon Credits?
Carbon credits are permits that allow a company or organization to emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases. Each credit typically represents one ton of carbon dioxide. These credits are part of a larger carbon trading system designed to limit greenhouse gas emissions by providing economic incentives for reducing pollution. Companies that produce fewer emissions than their credits allow can sell their excess credits to other companies, creating a market-driven approach to environmental responsibility.
