Ukraine Develops Carbon Market to Address Environmental Damage from War
CARBON CAPTURE
Ukraine is establishing a carbon market to address extensive environmental damage caused by the ongoing war, with 2.4 million hectares of agricultural land impacted and emissions estimated at 230 million tonnes of CO₂. The proposed emissions trading system, set to begin in 2026, aims to attract private investment for reforestation and renewable energy projects, potentially integrating initiatives like Rewilding Ukraine that seek to restore significant areas of land.
