"Carbon pricing" as a book category encompasses works that explore the economic, policy, legal and practical mechanisms for putting a price on greenhouse gas emissions—covering carbon taxes, cap-and-trade systems, emissions trading, carbon markets and offset programs. Titles in this category examine the theory of externalities and market design, the political economy and regulatory frameworks of implementation, methods for measurement, reporting and verification (MRV), and case studies of national, regional and corporate pricing initiatives. Books range from technical textbooks and academic analyses to policy briefs, practitioner guides, impact assessments and advocacy or business strategy titles, and often address equity, international cooperation, finance, and the role of innovation and technology. The audience includes policymakers, economists, environmental lawyers, business leaders, climate campaigners and students seeking practical guidance or critical perspectives on using market-based tools to reduce emissions.

1. Net Zero by Dieter Helm
How We Stop Causing Climate Change
A clear-eyed critique of current climate policy that argues we must be realistic about costs, trade-offs and technologies if we are to actually eliminate greenhouse-gas emissions: it calls for honest accounting rather than optimistic promises, market-based mechanisms (not endless subsidies), prioritizing proven low‑carbon options including nuclear and carbon capture where appropriate, caution about overreliance on offsets and unproven solutions, and stronger, more pragmatic government planning to achieve emissions reductions while protecting energy security and consumers.
