This episode is the second in a series of Voluntary Carbon Standard podcasts. The Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS) was launched on November 19th 2007 at the London Stock Exchange.

The founding members of the VCS Association Board, as well as UK Member of Parliament Tim Yeo and Dr Anne-Marie Warris of LRQA, the author of the standard, were on the panel that presented the new global standard to the media.

We were on hand for the launch event and we also caught up with some of the key people in the development and implementation of the VCS:

  • Andre Marcu, CEO of the International Emissions Trading Association, IETA
  • Steve Howard, CEO of the Climate Group
  • Adam Kirkman, Program Manager for the World Business Council of Sustainable Development, WBCSD
  • Gary Gero, Executive Vice-President for the California Climate Action Registry
