Carbon crediting is one of the world's greatest, but least-known, success stories. It helps Americans by providing revenue to landowners, lowering the cost of meeting ambitious climate goals, and giving commercial opportunities to deploy American know-how and technology. It also helps the world by protecting rainforests and other critical ecosystems, improving people's livelihoods, and safeguarding biodiversity.

A US-based non-profit -- Verra -- runs the world's largest greenhouse gas crediting mechanism. Join this session to learn more about carbon crediting, debunk the myths about the concept, and understand how it can help the world solve the climate emergency.

Moderator: David Antonioli, CEO, Verra
