President Santiago Peña, a strong supporter of the bill, has tasked the Ministry of Environment with overseeing the regulatory framework and monitoring both domestic and foreign-acquired carbon credits. The legislation, officially named the ‘Carbon Credits Bill’, lays the foundation for certifying carbon capture and facilitating its trade in international markets.

30x30 Kunming-Montreal
Global Biodiversity Framework
The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) was adopted during the fifteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP15) after a four-year consultation and negotiation process. This landmark Framework, which supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and builds on the Convention's previous Strategic Plans, sets out an ambitious path to achieve the global vision of a world living in harmony with nature by 2050. Among the Key elements of the Framework include 4 targets for 2050 and 23 targets for 2030.
The Regulatory,Transparency and Scalability Solutions of the Carbon Market
Carbon markets face challenges to scale and integrate globally. Despite the criticism, both government-run regulatory and the growing voluntary market for offsets can make significant additional contributions to controlling global emissions. The success of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), by far the largest and most mature of the 30 compliance markets globally, has played an important role in shifting European power generation. If major economies adopt legally binding net-zero emissions targets, border taxes would force industrialized nations that trade with each other to adopt a common approach to pricing carbon. The Americas must play a key role in establishing the new rules of the game.
