Moving in here to talk all things #carbonmarkets #carbonpricing #OCTT #EUETS #UNFCCC #climate #energy
Looking forward to joining @ecodiya in a bit to discuss #EUETS and carbon pricing!@CarbonMrktWatch @caneecca facebook.com/events/1288431…
Debating #EUETS policymaking crunch time. Speakers agree it's all about the money now. Christmas looming on the background. Time to end the free pollution gifts go to large polluters!
#EUETS new Article 29b endorsed by @EP_Industry A cure worse than the disease? Anybody worried about speculation in the EU ETS should really have a deeper look at the role of free emission allowances.
Nice to see @MChahim draft CBAM report helpfully contains a list of stakeholders from whom he received input. Of course @CarbonMrktWatch is on the list ;-) but also a lot more industry folks. This is a good example of transparency and public accountability!
Happening now: youth activists from protest to increase the pressure on delegates and ministers not to create dual markets which allow the private sector to fool the public under the pretence of high climate ambition
This is no time to cave in to fossil fuel interests and allow companies to greenwash. Voluntary carbon markets and offsets cannot be used as an excuse for real climate action. #octt #Article6 #COP26 #COP26Glasgow
This morning @CarbonMrktWatch @SabineBFrank will join the #EUETS panel @carbon_forward conference. Looking forward to the debate!

Day2 at #SB50. The Return of Article 6. Discussions on future of international carbon markets starting. Countries are to deliver environmental and social benefits. We will need dedication, inspiration and coffee. #SB50Bonn #climate #carbonmarkets #OCTT bit.ly/2WKlD8R
Schauvliege is plotseling vóór EU vliegtaks, terwijl België en quasi alle lidstaten iets meer dan 1 jaar geleden ervoor kozen om de ETS-heffing voor vluchten minstens tot 2021 op te schorten. Wie gelooft die mensen nog?#Riseforclimate #klimaatmars data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/S…
Frontpage news in Belgium today: more than 3000 joined the #ClimateStrike in Brussels yesterday. "And next Thursday we will be back. We keep going until nobody can ignore us." 💚💚💚 #schoolstrike4climate #FridaysForFuture
There must be something more important than going to school today... #ClimateStrike Brussels #FridaysforFuture #schoolstrike4climate
Is the #euets carbon pollution price signal adequate? All agree more is needed. @ClaudeTurmes @felixmatthes @femkedejong @SuzlCarp @Orsted @NLatEU debating carbon floor price.
Shocked by the retail prices of solar PV modules. Price per watt of modules has fallen by about 30% in just ONE YEAR! Go Solar!!!#EU2050 #climate #ClimateNeutralEU @WWFEU pv-magazine.com/features/inves…
#2050climate planning for steel, cement, chemicals... Time to all aim for net zero carbon emissions well before 2050! #netzero2050
