Market Carbon Credit Confidence Low
2009-09-11
Now worth 25 cents, were at $7 in 2008

Back on September 2nd, 2006/2007 instruments were selling as low as 20 cents and held that way until Sept 8th. So this is a boost...

Zimbabwe money notes are doing pretty well on Ebay. Right now they are actually more valuable than carbon credit notes.

Apparently with about the same confidence level.

#3  Carbon Credit Price and Sales information from the Chicago Climate Exchange, not Ebay.

Still, they're voluntary at this point.

#2  carbon credits on ebay would be voluntary ones. That they are low, would indicate lots of people are trying to sell, and not so many trying to buy. Logical given a weak economy. Perhaps also a sign more people are actually conserving, and so have more credits to sell, and fewer feel a need to buy.


The whole idea of a carbon market is to introduce market principles. One of which is that sometimes the items traded go down in value.

#1  Of course Zim notes have more value! You can use them as toilet paper in case of emergency...carbon credits, not so much.
