Episode 1
Carbon Frontiers 2024

This week, we kick off our new series, Carbon Frontiers 2024. Throughout this series, we’ll be talking with the market practitioners who’ve kept the carbon markets and decarbonization efforts moving forward to better understand how they’re learning from the mistakes of the past, adapting to the realities of the present, and developing the markets, technologies, and strategies for a net-zero future.

We begin our series with Sandeep Roy Choudhury, Director of VNV Advisory Services. SmarterMarkets™ host David Greely sits down with Sandeep to discuss the impact of the intense media criticism last year on carbon emissions projects and how he’s working to continue to use carbon financing to fund and develop carbon mitigation and adaptation projects.
