The voluntary and compliance carbon markets are two distinct carbon trading systems with different objectives, prices, participants, and rules. The compliance carbon market is driven by government regulations that require companies in specific high-emission sectors to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to comply with a specific target. On the other hand, the voluntary carbon market is driven by organisations and individuals who voluntarily choose to offset their emissions or invest in carbon credits to support sustainability goals.
Climate Farmers’ Carbon+ Credits are sold on the voluntary carbon market. Companies buy the credits that are generated from farmers sequestering carbon on their agricultural land.
