World Bank offers template laws for countries to join carbon markets

The World Bank released a new toolkit to help countries set up legal rules for selling carbon credits. This means more developing nations can now use pre-made templates to attract money for climate projects.

Many developing countries want to sell carbon credits but lack the legal structures to do so reliably. This toolkit provides ready-made legal language, so countries do not have to invent their own systems from scratch. It could speed up how quickly more nations can participate in global carbon trading.
