Emissions trading is a Kyoto Protocol mechanism established to cost effectively reduce emissions and meet Kyoto Protocol commitments.

The joint implementation scheme encourages and rewards emission reduction initiatives between industrialised countries that have signed the Kyoto Protocol. The emission reduction credits earned will help you meet your reduction commitments.

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) allows you to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a cost-efficient manner. Your active contribution to sustainable development in a developing country is awarded with emission credits that can fulfil your own reduction commitments or be traded in the greenhouse gas market.

Voluntary emission reduction actions allow you to take advantage of voluntary efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by following certain regulations and standards.
