On May 27-29 2009, the main greenhouse gas market players are meeting in Barcelona at Carbon Expo 2009, the leading global trade fair and conference for emissions trading and carbon abatement solutions. All five continents will be represented by participants from 120 countries.

The carbon market is a global market. As a consequence carbon abatement solutions are a worldwide concern as the challenge to reduce emissions can only be resolved internationally. Organized by the World Bank, the International Trading Emissions Association (IETA), Fira Barcelona and Koelnmesse, Carbon Expo 2009 brings together carbon market players to meet each other, make deals and share information on the latest developments in the greenhouse gas market.

Organizers are expecting around 300 exhibitors and 3,500 participants from around the world to attend the event which this year focuses on cities and carbon finance. There will be a Carbon Expo Urban Pavilion for the first time this year. Meanwhile, Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan will once again have their own shared pavilion, following the success of their joint stands in past years. Furthermore, developing countries from East Asia and the Pacific, South Asia, Middle East and North Africa, Africa and Latin America, and the Caribbean will also be showcased.
