Show Notes
Parts of the world that have introduced some form of carbon pricing have been able to disconnect their emissions from economic growth, thanks largely to the polluter-pays principle.
But there is somewhat of a disconnect between carbon markets and the most important part of the energy transition: consumers. So is it possible to democratise emissions trading? To involve more people in carbon pricing? Is this something that would benefit the energy transition?
Valentin Lautier, founder of Homaio, a startup that aims to unlock carbon markets for individual investors, joins this edition of the Policy Dispatch to explain his view on these issues.
