What are Carbon Emissions ?
Carbon Credit and Emissions Trading are a component of national and international attempts to mitigate the growth in concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs). One carbon credit is equal to one ton of carbon dioxide, or in some markets, carbon dioxide equivalent gases. Carbon Offsetters or Brokerage Firms will purchase credits from WCO2 who has aggregated the credits from individual projects. The quality of the credits is based in part on the validation process and sophistication of the project.

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), defined in Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol, allows a country with an emission-reduction or emission-limitation commitment under the Kyoto Protocol (Annex B Party) to implement an emission-reduction project in developing countries. Such projects can earn saleable certified emission reduction (CER) credits, each equivalent to one tonne of CO2, which can be counted towards meeting Kyoto targets.

Verified Emission Reductions or Voluntary Emission Reductions (VERs) are commonly understood as tradable emission reductions that have been generated according to defined standards and requirements other than the Kyoto Protocol, exchanged in the voluntary or “Over-the-Counter” (OTC) market for carbon credits.
