Carbon Trading: Future Money Making Venture for India Sarika Gupta Assistant Professor‚ P.M.B. Gujrati Commerce Collage‚ Indore Abstract Carbon Trading are generated by enterprises in the developing world that shift to cleaner technologies and thereby consumption‚ consequently reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. For each tone of carbon dioxide (the major GHG) emission avoided‚ the entity can get a carbon emission certificate which they can sell either immediately or through a futures market

2013 Carbon Footprint Until very recently‚ most people had never heard of a “carbon footprint.” Now‚ all of a sudden‚ the phrase is hard to avoid. In an age of slick slogans‚ fast fashions and fickle fads it’s easy to assume that this is just another quirky passing gimmick. But it could well be the most important concept of our time. A carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted as a direct or indirect result of an activity (Yarrow‚ Joanna. How to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint:

In 2010‚ Labor Prime Minister Julia Gillard decided to implement carbon tax in order to gain more support in response to the change in climate (http://isen.northwestern.edu/doc/pdf/URG-ISEN_ALloyd.Jun12_ProjectSummary.pdf) and on the 8th of November 2011‚ the ‘Clean Energy Legislative Package’ is then passed by the Senate which sets out the way that Australia will introduce the carbon tax to reduce carbon pollution (http://www.deloitte.com/view/en_AU/au/services/assurance/accountingtechnical/wha

Carbon tax is an environmental tax levied on the carbon content of fuels. It is a form of carbon pricing. Carbon is present in every hydrocarbon fuel ‚ such as coal‚ petroleum‚ and natural gas. It is then released as carbon dioxide (CO2) when they are burnt. In contrast‚ non-combustion energy sources—wind‚sunlight‚ hydropower‚ and nuclear—do not convert hydrocarbons to CO2. CO2 is a heat-trapping "greenhouse" gas. Scientists have debated and discussed the potential effects on the climate system of

ABSTRACT We are in debt to Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and other green house gases for our presence on earth. As they help in stabilizing temperatures to levels sustainable for organic life – by what is known as green house effect. In modern times burning of fossil fuels like coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas combined with fast deforestation has led to unprecedented level of green house gas emission. Here came in to existence the concept of Carbon Emission Trading developed during the Kyoto Protocol in 1997

Carbon Footprint The term “carbon footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide we emit into the air every year. C02 is produced by many sources and is the gas responsible for Global warming and alarming changes in our climate. As we use our resources‚ the negative impact on our environment increases. The more C02 emitted in the air the more our ozone layer is affected. C02 is a natural gas and is always being emitted and absorbed to and from the air. There is a certain amount of carbon
