Carbon Markets & Inflation

The video discusses the role of carbon markets in reducing global emissions, highlighting the European Emissions Trading System and China's market. It examines the effectiveness of carbon markets, noting a 40% reduction in emissions in Europe since 2005. However, achieving net zero emissions solely through carbon markets would require extremely high prices, making additional policies and investments necessary. The International Energy Agency suggests that combining carbon markets with other policies could make achieving net zero more feasible. The video concludes that carbon markets are vital but should be part of a broader strategy.
