Ecuador advances towards comprehensive and competitive climate action
Somos un organismo independiente, técnico y apolítico que reúne importantes actores del sector empresarial y productivo en conjunto con la academia y empresas de servicios con miras a promover una acción climática íntegra que permita atraer inversiones y generar empleo en Ecuador. Se espera que el mercado global de créditos de carbono crezca a una tasa compuesta anual de casi el 31% hasta 2027. El mercado de carbono voluntario que hoy moviliza cerca de 2 mil millones de dólares anuales podría crecer a más de US $ 40 mil millones en 2030. Ecuador puede y debe acceder a estos beneficios contribuyendo a la meta net zero a través de la descarbonización nacional, al tiempo de brindar acceso a recursos a las comunidades y pueblos indígenas. Ese es nuestro compromiso.
