''Environmental concerns - emissions''.


A long term borrowing instrument with periodic interest re-fixings, which incorporates two linked options:
Net zero emissions means that any greenhouse gas emissions are balanced by schemes to offset an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, such as planting trees or using technology like carbon capture and storage.


#An option for the lender to set revised (usually higher) interest rates at predetermined interest reset dates - for example annually. This is the Lender's option.
#A linked option for the borrower (exercisable only if the Lender’s option is exercised) either to pay the revised interest rate, or else to redeem the bond. This is the Borrower’s option.
