The book is a unique overview of the launching of carbon markets worldwide, and the evolution of those markets as critical tools to manage climate change and other environmental problems. The book also presents uniquely personal narratives of the authors, who have each led unconventional and exciting professional lives, meeting by coincidence, and then working together on the largest environmental and economic problems of our times - addressing climate change with flexibility and maximum potential. Given the unique backgrounds of the authors as pioneers in their respective domains, the book is likely to have no comparable or "competitive" books. Carbon Hunters also situates the evolution of carbon markets as a journey of invention, imagination and creativity, bringing to life in real-world terms the academic and intellectual underpinnings of an exceptional and rewarding journey - inventing and activating new markets to save our planetary home. Finally, the book offers catalytic "Food for Thought" and Forecasts on how carbon markets can shape the future of environmental stewardship.
