Carbon Trade

Climatic changes experienced with global warming have noticeable negative effects on all living conditions and economies. According to the 4th Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published in 2007, the cause of climate change is the increase in atmospheric and sea temperatures with the increase in greenhouse gas emissions in the air. On this point, many countries have taken steps to reduce human-caused greenhouse gas emissions aided by the United Nations. The most comprehensive step in this area is the signing of the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. The Kyoto Protocol recommends technical and economic mechanisms for entity countries to fulfil obligations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Kyoto Protocol gave rise to a Carbon Market, and this market soon grew considerably.
 
Carbon markets are divided into two Mandatory Carbon Markets and Voluntary Carbon Markets. Since Turkey has no obligations under the Kyoto Protocol, projects are included in the Voluntary Carbon Market as a sign of various standards. The Voluntary Carbon Market may be summarized as the acquisition of a carbon reduction certificate that another company has documented on its carbon-saving project, in response to the emission of companies concerned with global climate change.
