| General characterstics |
A carbon credit is equivalent to one ton of carbon dioxide or its equivalent greenhouse gas (GHG). Carbon credits are `Entitlement Certificates` issued by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to the implementers of the approved Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects.
The certificates are sold to entities in rich countries, like power utilities, which have emission reduction targets to achieve and find it cheaper to buy 'offsetting' certificates rather than do a clean-up in their own backyard.
