An Overview of the Carbon Markets

In this lecture I give a relatively high-level overview of the carbon markets. I touch on:
- What the carbon markets are
- Why they're important
- How carbon projects work
- What to look out for when buying carbon offsets
- Scandals in the carbon markets
- Promising work being done to improve things
Here's the slides:

Packed with interesting insight that could only be gained from years in the industry ... thank you Elias!

Hi Elias, thanks for sharing your precious knowledge to the world!
I'll definitely seek inspiration from your lecture for my thesis on carbon markets!

An iconic video, well done. Thank you for putting this together!

Great video. I am an environmental engineering grad student at stanford and this was made well. You said that wood is primarily carbon and hydrogen. 50% hydrogen. if you convert to co2 equivalents then more than the weight of the tree i(in co2 equivalents) is being stored in the tree. I think you must have meant something else as this is not possible.

Great video ! Thanks for the work Elias!

Very very high quality presentation. You don't get quality videos like this very many places. Excellent and well done Elias. However, it sounds like the industry is dying and Renostar will have to wind down, as the true cost of carbon credits will likely turn companies away.

Hello Elias,
I'm truly impressed by your expertise. I'm in the process of developing a forestry project and would greatly appreciate your guidance to ensure its quality. If you're unable to assist directly, could you recommend someone or an organization that can advise me to keep the project on the right track?

I hope if we can talk I'm interesting to know more about it
