How putting a price on carbon drives climate action

Curious about how carbon pricing works and why it matters? This short video breaks down the essentials of climate economics in an easy-to-understand way. Discover how the Polluter-Pays Principle ensures accountability for emissions, and explore the main carbon pricing instruments shaping climate policy worldwide:

• Cap-and-Trade systems that set limits on total emissions,
• Carbon Taxes that put a direct price on pollution, and
• Baseline-and-Crediting mechanisms that reward emission reductions.

You’ll also learn the difference between voluntary and regulated carbon markets, and how various systems interlink to form a global framework for climate action. Watch now to understand how smart pricing policies can help power a low-carbon future.
