Süsinikturuliste
Süsinikturuliste refers to a potential or theoretical economic model that emphasizes the management and trading of carbon emissions. The core idea is to create a market where entities are allocated or can purchase allowances to emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases. Companies that reduce their emissions below their allocated or purchased limit can then sell their surplus allowances to those who exceed theirs, thus creating a financial incentive for emission reduction. This concept is closely related to cap-and-trade systems, which are a well-established form of carbon pricing. The term itself suggests a market focused on "süsinik" (carbon) and "turuliste" (market-oriented or market-based). The effectiveness of such a system depends on factors like the stringency of the cap, the accuracy of emissions monitoring, the liquidity of the market, and the enforcement mechanisms in place. While the term may not be widely used in mainstream economic literature, it encapsulates the principles of market-based environmental regulation applied to carbon emissions.
