The paper examines the compatibility of CMC systems with different forms of climate clubs or club-like arrangements, and considers how climate clubs using CMC services could contribute to the development of carbon markets internationally and to climate change mitigation.

This paper is arranged as follows: Section 1 is the Introduction; Section 2 of the paper presents the core concepts and messages of two strands of the club literature that have emerged in climate change studies; In Section 3, the features of climate clubs and club-like arrangements are integrated into a discussion of CMCs initiative, including the potential of linkages among diverse entities; and Section 4 has the conclusions. 2016-12-15T23:14:58Z 2016-12-15T23:14:58Z 2016-07 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/679721481096810481/Carbon-market-clubs-and-the-new-Paris-regime http://hdl.handle.net/10986/25768 English en_US Networked Carbon Markets; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Other Environmental Study Economic & Sector Work South Asia
