Most of the active carbon credit brokers are people with knowledge in the environment, atmosphere, and energy fields, and economic and business management, so they need to understand climate change and the entire CDM (Clean Development System) business.

Since traders have to work on the international stage, they also need the ability to accurately analyze market trends, such as excellent English proficiency, knowledge, and sense of economy and management, domestic and foreign economic trends, understanding emission trading systems, and analyzing the supply and demand status of emission rights, to predict future market demand.
