Market mechanism debate: Article 6 key to emissions reduction
The 29th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku, Azerbaijan, concluded amid widespread disappointment and criticism. Though considered a failed COP, one part of the compromise deal was the operationalisation of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. This article establishes a framework for international cooperation to achieve climate goals through market and non-market mechanisms, facilitating emissions reductions via three pathways: Article 6.2 (nations trading surplus reductions as Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs)); Article 6.4 (a UN-regulated global carbon market); and Article 6.8 (non-market approaches like technology transfer and capacity building).
