What is the concept of carbon credits?

A “carbon credit” is a tradable certificate. More specifically, it is a permit that gives the holder the right to emit, over a certain period, carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases

Carbon credits are generated from projects around the world that pull Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) out of the atmosphere, or keep them out altogether.
