Description

Carbon credits could help fund orphan well cleanup—but today’s market is fragmented, small-scale, and hard to access. This session dives into key hurdles: registry bottlenecks, outdated methodologies, and the gap between state and voluntary markets. We’ll also look at what’s next, from digitized tracking to smarter standards that can unlock scale across the Southwest.
