In November 2023 Iraq <a href="https://www.oilandgasmiddleeast.com/news/iraq-launches-carbon-economics-company-to-combat-rising-carbon-emissions" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">established</a> the ‘Carbon Economics Company’ to reduce carbon emissions, addressing environmental issues like gas flaring in oil-rich areas. This initiative, endorsed by Prime Minister Mohammed Al-Sudani, came in response to increasing concerns over Iraq’s environmental challenges, notably in areas such as Basra, where the flaring of gas from oil wells has been a persistent issue.
