Most 'zombie credits' excluded from new UN carbon market

Most older carbon credit projects, often termed 'zombie credits', will not transition to the new UN carbon market. This development follows a lack of participation from major emitting nations, including China and India, in the new market mechanism. The exclusion alleviates concerns among environmental groups regarding a potential influx of credits from projects with questionable environmental integrity. This move establishes a precedent for stricter quality control within the emerging UN carbon market.
