Rainforest to Revenue: Brazil’s Carbon Market Opening

Brazil, the host nation of this year’s COP30, looks set to be at the center of most major carbon market developments in 2025. The country is working hard to develop its domestic carbon market, and could quickly leapfrog others in terms of scale and impact, with the ramping up of its nature-based carbon supply for international trading. At the 2025 BloombergNEF Forum Sao Paulo, Kyle Harrison, BNEF’s Head of Environmental Markets, moderated a panel titled “Brazil’s Role in the Evolution of Global Carbon Markets.” This episode brings listeners that panel, which featured Thiago Picolo, chief executive officer at re.green; Fabiana Alves, chief executive officer at Rabobank; Fabio Galindo, chief executive officer at Future Climate; and Angela Pinhati, chief sustainability officer at Natura.
