Recommendation

Environmental commodities offer intrepid investors a chance to participate financially in clean energy production and climate change mitigation, writes long-time trader Lawrence Pines in this illuminating explainer. He highlights environmental commodities’ history, types, governance, investment theses and market opportunities. Although getAbstract never offers investment advice, traders, investors and ESG champions may find this primer on commodities trading a useful resource.

Take-Aways

  • The regulation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions creates a market for environmental commodities.
  • Environmental commodities place a price on the right to emit GHGs, and they function as both incentives and deterrents.
  • As measures to curtail GHGs increase, the potential for financial gains in environmental commodities also expands.
