Ghana has earned about $800 million through carbon credit trading with other countries, the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has disclosed.
He said the amount would go a long way to help Ghana finance its climate-resilient projects as part of measures to reduce global carbon emissions.
Carbon credits are incentives paid by companies or individuals to entities that remove or reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The monies are to compensate for the gases emitted by the companies.
