This timely Handbook of Carbon Markets provides an overview and analysis of carbon markets in theory and practice. Scholars and practitioners from different disciplines and backgrounds evaluate the state of voluntary and compliance carbon markets, as well as their contribution to urgent climate and energy transitions.

Contributors present key insights into well-established and newly emerging carbon markets across the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. Chapters consider the rapidly evolving frameworks for global carbon markets, taking into account developments under the Paris Agreement and in voluntary carbon markets. Adopting a forward-looking approach, the Handbook explores topics including carbon dioxide removal, carbon leakage, carbon markets and climate justice, and the interactions between different types of carbon markets in achieving net-zero goals.

The Handbook of Carbon Markets is an essential resource for academics and researchers in climate policy, environmental law and economics. Postgraduate students and government officials will equally benefit from the balanced and diverse exploration of these key instruments of climate policy.
