Late last month, a coalition of U.S. federal agencies issued a Joint Policy Statement endorsing voluntary carbon markets (VCM), marking a significant step towards "Voluntary Carbon Market 2.0." Our Chief Science Officer, Dr. Jennifer Jenkins, alongside Rubicon’s Research Director, Dr. Brian Clough, has written a summary of the government’s statement, explaining how it aligns with existing guidelines from organizations like the ICVCM and VCMI by emphasizing the importance of high-integrity carbon credits while highlighting the need for emissions reductions and practical flexibility for companies.
