In this episode of RPM, Michael and Maribel hand the reins to StepStone’s natural capital team for a primer on carbon markets and offsetting. Though these markets are imperfect and subject to criticisms—some of which we agree with—ultimately, we believe carbon markets are part of the climate solution. Join StepStone’s global head of responsible investment, Suzanne Tavill, and Ryan Ramsey, a principal on StepStone’s infrastructure team as they cover a range of topics from: 

• Defining key terms (1:20); 
• Carbon neutral versus net zero (6:27); 
• Compliance and voluntary markets (9:10); 
• Pricing dynamics (12:02); and  
• Recent criticisms (17:13).
