The Truth About Carbon Credits: Are They Really Helping Africa? 🌿


In our latest roundtable episode, we dive deep into carbon credits—a system designed to offset pollution by allowing companies and countries to "buy" environmental responsibility. But is this really working, or is it just a license to pollute?


🔎 We break it down:

✅ What carbon credits are and how they work

✅ The real price of carbon credits—who sets it and who benefits?

✅ The broken incentive system that lets big polluters off the hook

✅ How local communities in Kenya bear the cost but see little reward


With land as a bargaining chip, are African nations truly benefiting, or is this just another exploitative global market? Tune in and let’s talk about the hidden truths behind carbon credits.
