Verification of the emission reduction or carbon sequestration is critical in efforts to mitigate climate change. One question is who will be responsible for verifying changes in carbon, which raises questions about the role of a regulatory agency for accrediting claimed changes in carbon levels from an activity.

It should be noted that this reactivity of oil price to consumption decreases over time, as the international market has more time to adjust to the evolution of European demand (hence also much lower reactivities than those that can be observed on the daily market, for instance at the end of 2008 and in early 2009).
