Scaling Trust in Voluntary Carbon Markets
The Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) could be a powerful tool in rebalancing our impact on the earth by funding projects to remove and avoid emissions. How do we make sure it is trusted, transparent and effective?
Join us for an evening of conversation with Lucy Hargreaves, Head of Corporate Affairs and Climate Policy at Patch, which seeks to enable the different players in the VCM to scale the market sustainably.
Together, we'll discuss the role of the VCM in fighting climate change, its integrity, its future potential, and what role Canada could play in that future.
As always, we will also be asking Lucy where she sees opportunities for our audience to build solutions in this space.
What to expect:
6:00 PM - Mingle and say hello
6:30-7:30 - Conversation with Lucy followed by Q&A
7:30-8:00 - Socialize
