Carbon credit is what?

Carbon credit (carbon credit) is a certificate of exhaust emissions₂ or other greenhouse gases converted to CO₂. Inside, The seller is the ability to reduce or increase carbon absorption compared to the reference level. Each carbon credit corresponds to a ton of CO₂ or the amount of greenhouse gas converted equivalent to CO₂ has been prevented or removed. Quantity CO₂ The newly planted trees can be absorbed compared to this scenario will be considered as an increase in carbon absorption compared to the reference level. Phần tăng này được bao nhiêu tấn thì quy đổi ra bao nhiêu “Tín chỉ Carbon”.

Whereby, Participants committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, At the same time, it is allowed to exchange carbon emissions with each other in the international market through carbon credits. Since, Global carbon market, Where companies or countries are more than the prescribed levels can buy credits from organizations, Projects or countries have lower emissions or carbon absorption as one of the ways to achieve waste reduction goals.

How to operate of carbon credits:

Doanh nghiệp có lượng phát thải vượt quá giới hạn được phép sẽ cần mua tín chỉ carbon từ thị trường để bù đắp lượng khí thải này.

– Project reduces emissions:

Businesses, Organizations or individuals invest in reducing emissions or eliminating greenhouses, For example, planting forests, Using renewable energy, sẽ nhận được tín chỉ carbon.

– Trading market:

Carbon credits can be traded in the market, giúp cân bằng lượng khí thải giữa các bên.

After recess, Representatives of experts studying forest carbon valuation methods of the Forestry and Ranger Department- Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment&MT has announced the "draft method of forest carbon valuation", Specifically two main methods: Cost method (Including direct costs and indirect costs ”and comparison method (Based on the reference parameters of the same type).
