Each episode examines a specific mechanism — from EU ETS permit prices to the impact of US Inflation Reduction Act subsidies on corporate balance sheets — and traces how these policies ripple through energy markets, manufacturing, and consumer prices. Lucas brings the numbers and institutional context (how the World Bank's carbon pricing dashboard works, what the Social Cost of Carbon actually measures), while Luna pushes for the practical implications: does a €50 carbon tax actually change behavior? What happens when a steel plant in Germany faces both emission costs and Chinese competition? The show serves investors, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand climate-related financial risk without the activism or greenwashing. Listeners walk away able to parse a carbon offset market, evaluate a company's net-zero roadmap, and spot the difference between a real price signal and a political slogan. How do you put a number on a ton of carbon — and who pays when that number is wrong? #CarbonPricing #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #EUETS #Infla…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T06:19:03.667812+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781"},"episode":{"title":"Why Biodiversity Credits Are the Next Carbon Market","slug":"why-biodiversity-credits-are-the-next-carbon-market","published_at":"2026-06-27T07:04:15+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/why-biodiversity-credits-are-the-next-carbon-market","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0076.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0076.mp3","summary":"Carbon markets are well-established, but a new frontier in environmental finance is emerging: biodiversity credits. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how companies are starting to pay for measurable improvements in ecosystem health—from restoring wetlands in Louisiana to protecting rainforest corridors in Costa Rica. They break down the pilot program launched by the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the early pricing data from the first biodiversity credit exchange in the UK. Lucas explains why biodiversity credits could avoid the integrity pitfalls that plagued early carbon offsets, thanks to stricter monitoring and geospatial verification. Luna asks whether this is just greenwashing 2.0 or a genuinely new asset class. The hosts also discuss the role of insurers and pension funds as early buyers, and what it means for land managers and conservation groups. A focused look at a market that is still tiny—but growing fast. #BiodiversityCredits #NatureFinance #TNFD #CarbonMarkets #EcosystemServices #GreenFinance #Conservation #ESG #NaturalCapital #Biodiversity #CarbonOffset #EnvironmentalEconomics #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #ClimateFinance #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Carbon markets are well-established, but a new frontier in environmental finance is emerging: biodiversity credits.
