Climate Trading: Development of Greenhouse Gas Markets (Finance and Capital Markets Series) »

Debbie Stowell is a climate change policy specialist at ECON in Norway.

Climate Trading covers issues related to greenhouse gas emissions trading markets, including the events that lead up to the adoption of the Kyoto protocol, the development of the market-based mechanisms under the Protocol, and the emerging domestic and international emissions trading and carbon credits markets. The book provides a comprehensive and detailed overview of the complex and evolving issues surrounding these markets. As governments begin the process of implementation of domestic regulation in order to meet international requirements, it will be crucial for capital markets practitioners to understand the implications and options associated with emissions trading.
