North America Climate Summit - NACS 2025

Carbon at the Crossroads: Subnational Markets, Law, and What to Watch
Convene 360 Madison Avenue, Midtown East, New York
 | 2:50-3:50 PM EST

As California, Washington, and the U.S. Northeast advance cap-and-trade and cap-and-invest programs, the rules of the game for carbon are shifting fast. At the same time, legal challenges to state authority, new climate accountability and disclosure requirements, and emerging oversight of VCMs are creating both risks and opportunities. How are businesses adapting to overlapping policies? Where do legal uncertainties meet commercial opportunity? And what comes next for subnational carbon markets that are shaping the U.S. climate economy from the ground up?
