Ive recently read about carbon credit trading on the Montreal Exchange. What is the benefit of choosing Zerofootprint?
The Montreal Climate Exchange is a platform that will facilitate carbon credit trading under the forthcoming federal greenhouse gas legislation. Since the legislation has not yet been passed, and the carbon credit trading system is in the process of being implemented, you can only purchase “Futures contracts on Canada Carbon Dioxide Equivalent Units” on the Montreal Climate Exchange. This means you’re purchasing a contract now for an underlying carbon credit that will be available in the future. The underlying carbon credits purchased on the Montreal Exchange will be delivered by June 1st, 2011 (in some cases even later), and there’s no way to tell what kind of project your purchase will be invested in. With Zerofootprint’s projects, funds from your offset purchases are directed toward certified and independently audited projects, which are fully transparent.
