Overview
Carbon markets help mobilize resources and reduce costs to give countries and companies the space to smooth the low-carbon transition. Carbon markets are also a key tool for states to get businesses to help mitigate climate change, as businesses that run climate mitigation projects, such as building wind farms or replanting forests, will be able to sell the emissions reductions to countries. The main aim of this book is to provide simple, effective, understandable, and applicable mechanisms for all readers. To enable and empower them to implement management systems that are adapted to the reality and expectations of their business. In this book, you will find all of those mechanisms and resources needed to ensure that sustainability is well embedded into a company through Human Resources Practices, Marketing, Communication, Procurement, and CEO Leadership.
