- Carbon Accounting
Umbrella term referring to the act of measuring and reporting on an organization's greenhouse gas emissions.
Carbon accounting procedures typically aim to measure and report on the
emissions that a company is directly responsible for, but they can also track
emissions that result from a firm's supply chain and the activities of its
partners, customers and staff.
The practice is widely regarded as an essential first step towards cutting
carbon emissions.
However, critics have argued that its effectiveness is undermined by an
absence of international standards, which means that carbon calculations can be
undertaken differently from organization to organization.

- Carbon Cycle
All parts (reservoirs) and fluxes of carbon. The cycle is usually thought of as four main reservoirs of carbon interconnected by pathways of exchange. The reservoirs are the atmosphere, terrestrial biosphere (usually includes freshwater systems), oceans, and sediments (includes fossil fuels). The annual movements of carbon, the carbon exchanges between reservoirs, occur because of various chemical, physical, geological, and biological processes. The ocean contains the largest pool of carbon near the surface of the Earth, but most of that pool is not involved with rapid exchange with the atmosphere.

- Carbon Fraud
Carbon Fraud is an aspect of global carbon markets.
Basically due to weak certification and validation processes in carbon markets, it is often quite easy to operate a 'fake' carbon offsetting business; i.e. claiming to run an offshore forest preservation scheme generating carbon credits when no such thing exists in reality (i.e. just pocket the money).
Also, due to the difficult nature of assessing exactly how much carbon some scheme or process offsets, you can also get fraud through over estimating the amount of carbon offset.
It is understood in some regions that organized crime has got involved in carbon markets, and that some markets have had to be suspended to investigate systematic fraud.

- Carbon Leakage
The theory that policy measures designed to reduce CO2 emissions in one
country or region will result in an increase in emissions in another country as
carbon intensive firms relocate to areas with less demanding environmental
regulations.
For example, it is feared that steel plants and other heavy industries faced
with planned carbon pricing regulations in the US may move their operations to
countries such as China or India that do not have carbon pricing schemes in an
attempt to avoid increased costs.
As a result, carbon emissions could simply "leak" from one country to
another, resulting in no net reduction in emissions.
The Kyoto Protocol and the EU Emissions Trading Scheme have both been accused
of causing carbon leakage, although there is little solid evidence as yet of
firms relocating solely as a result of carbon regulations.
One of the primary drivers for a global agreement to tackle climate change is
the hope that an international deal would remove the risk of carbon leakage by
establishing comparable carbon regulations for all countries.

- Carbon Trading
The sale and purchase of carbon credits or pollution permits through carbon
markets.
The practice is designed to help control carbon dioxide emissions by placing
a price on a ton of emitted CO2 and providing members of trading schemes with
economic incentives to reduce the amount of pollution they produce.
The market is dominated by cap-and-trade schemes, such as the EU's emissions
trading scheme, but carbon trading can also refer to the sale of carbon offsets
from emission reduction projects.
In theory, carbon trading mechanisms mean that emission reductions are
achieved at the lowest possible cost, as businesses will only purchase carbon
credits - effectively paying someone else to cut emissions for them - if they
can not deliver emission reductions at a lower cost themselves.
