The Road to Paris: What the UN climate talks mean for carbon markets

The upcoming UN climate talks in Paris aim to secure a new global deal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that could lead to greater use of emissions trading. Negotiators from 195 countries will try to hammer out the final details of a successor to the Kyoto Protocol over the course of two weeks from 30 November – 11 December.

Listen as Argus and IETA discuss:

  • How the UN talks may encourage countries to use market-based mechanisms to reduce GHG emissions
  • Progress in the talks leading up to Paris and the key issues still to be resolved
  • The form of the agreement that is likely to emerge from the talks
  • The steps the US and EU are taking to advance their climate policies in advance of the talks
