I expect that oversight of the VCM will continue to be largely thru voluntary bodies like the Integrity Council for the VCM. I realize that California has sought to be more active in this area … but that seems to be motivated by animus toward the VCM rather than a genuine effort to ensure integrity.
It’s hard to see why the new admin would want to exert *less* oversight than that (or why they would bother)
Meanwhile, the federal govt has not weighed in on what claims companies can make & it’s not clear what authority it would have to do so anyway. (2/3)
I don’t know, Severin. As you know the voluntary market is just that — voluntary. There’s not really much to “deregulate.”
I was pretty involved with the CFTC announcement behind the scenes and while significant, from a legal perspective it is just nonenforceable guidance for exchanges. (1/3)
On the Cowboy Junkies live album 200 More Miles, Margo Timmins says “It looks like everyone I know in Toronto is here.”
Just got here and that’s how this feels. Excited to see a lot of amazing people from the climate and clean energy space.
Going to listen a bit & get a sense of the conversation.
