In a global economy where policy solutions in support of the Voluntary Carbon Markets are slow to be implemented, many private companies are voluntarily internalizing the price of carbon in their business activities, as seen in their still-growing voluntary demand for carbon offsets in 2012. In general, voluntary demand for carbon offsetting grew 6% in 2012, and buyers committed more than $522 million to offset 101 million metric tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. The biggest voluntary buyer was the European private sector, including regulated energy utilities, with demand growing 34% to 43 million tonnes of offsets.
