Sliced: 🎙️ A Veteran Perspective on Carbon Markets: Insights with David Antonioli
We are back with a new episode of Untangling Climate Finance!
In this episode, our guest is climate adviser David Antonioli.
David is a household name in the carbon market space thanks to his position as the founding CEO of Verra, the American carbon standard and registry.
Having led Verra for nearly 15 years before stepping down in May of this year, David’s leadership transformed the non-profit into the world’s largest carbon credit certifier. Under his guidance, Verra established standards that are being used by the private sector, governments, and civil society for generating climate finance, significantly contributing to global decarbonization goals.
In addition to Verra’s substantial growth, David has played a crucial role in advancing the overall voluntary carbon market (VCM). He has navigated the various challenges and successes within the market, solidifying his position as a key figure of knowledge and expertise.
In this episode, Jay and David discuss the current state of the VCM. David offers insights into potential avenues for improvement and scalability, as well as his take on the future of carbon markets around the world. He also lays out what is in store for him as he embarks on a new journey.
