The establishment of a carbon market has been discussed since the 1990s, when the Kyoto Protocol laid down the general guidelines for its construction. The strategy of capitalizing on greenhouse gas emissions is praised by some and deprecated by others, but the carbon market is a reality and using this legal and economic tool in the best possible way is one of the possible tactics for tackling climate change.
With this in mind, Ruptura is pleased to announce its newest partnership with Lux Carbon Standard (LuxCS), the first Brazilian carbon credit certifier. The company, which focuses its operations on the voluntary market for trading carbon credits, had the support of our Litigation Director, Sabrina Lehnen Stoll, who worked on the revision of the Triple C protocol - Carbon Offset Credits is aimed at directly offsetting Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by providing an environmental service to remove equivalent carbon from the atmosphere.
The company's launch event will take place on Thursday, September 21, in the auditorium of the Association of Micro and Small Enterprises of Blumenau - AMPE, and we at Ruptura will be LuxCS's partners on this journey. We wish the company success, prosperity and wisdom in its important work to tackle climate change!
For those interested in following the launch online, it will be broadcast on LuxCS's YouTube channel.
