Enjoyed @MazzucatoM 's The Realignment appearance youtube.com/watch?v=VmhSiDd3… . Particularly enjoyed the climate consulting chapter in her book, having founded the first U.S. business climate consultancy in 1991! Actually agree with her conclusions.

On The Realignment podcast, my son @makosloff interviews @NaomiOreskes and @ErikMConway about their new book The Big Myth: How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market. Recommend both the book and the podcast! youtu.be/pmRb4HhoGnU

On this episode of Zero, @AkshatRathi starts off with a blunt question to @climateroulette, who helped create the first carbon offset project in 1988.

Hey look, there's my story in @TheAtlantic!

A climate project based on the idea that we can store carbon in soil recently received $30 million from Jeff Bezos. But many soil researchers aren't convinced by the underlying science, writes @GabrielPopkin for @QuantaMagazine. on.theatln.tc/hN2bbmm

There is growing demand for carbon offsets, but how can we prevent them from becoming another form of "greenwashing"?
Join our live discussion on June 30 @ 4 ET with Mark Trexler of @theclimateweb and Derik Broekhoff of @SEIresearch.

Today's devastating piece on carbon offsets at Bloomberg is a real indictment of voluntary carbon offset markets. @nature_org bloomberg.com/features/2020-…

The biggest challenge facing the integrity of carbon offset markets has always been the "additionality" criterion. Additionality means that the tons of emissions reductions or carbon sequestration can be traced back to the incentives created by the offset market.

Why has additionality been so hard to implement. It's not hard to understand.

But in my defense I have consistently pointed out the challenges in effectively designing and implementing carbon offset markets, challenges that we have simply never faced up to.

Additionality is critical because there are so many billions of tons of "emissions reductions" and "carbon sequestration" happening regardless of carbon offset markets. Allow them into the market and it loses its environmental integrity.
