Experts highlighted the potential of carbon markets to boost climate investments and promote sustainable growth in Bangladesh.
They made the remarks while speaking at a dialogue titled ‘ClimateTalk: Exploring a Robust Carbon Market in Bangladesh’, hosted by the Embassy of Denmark at Bay Edge Gallery in Dhaka recently.
Speaking at the event, Danish Ambassador to Bangladesh Christian Brix Møller noted that while Bangladesh contributes less than 0.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, it faces some of the world’s most severe climate risks. ‘This represents both a climate injustice and an opportunity for leadership and investment. With the right partnerships and policies, Bangladesh can turn climate challenges into sustainable, inclusive growth, with carbon markets playing a central role in this transformation,’ he said.
The envoy reaffirmed Denmark’s commitment to backing Bangladesh’s green transition.
