Carbon credits are purchased by industrialized countries from poor countries thus giving them the right to pollute, so to speak. As one way of tackling the global warming issue politicians suggest forcing industrialized countries to pay for the right to pollute, I suppose in hopes of deterring those nations from "polluting" the atmosphere and contributing to the "global warming" problem. It's really nothing more than a political ploy to give the world's leaders more money, or power, or both. And it'll have no effect whatsoever on the world's climate. Might I suggest you read the book Climate Confusion if you can find it. It's by Roy Spencer, a real climate scientist. Although he mentions carbon credits only briefly in the book, Roy explains how the global warming issue is way, way overblown. He also tells how, many, if not all climate scientists, who support the idea of a global warming threat, do so for the sake of money, politics, job security, and in some cases, even religious reasons. He explains the basics of how and why the climate "works" the way it does and how scientists don't understand the climate and weather as much as they would have us believe. Global warming is not a problem like many proclaim it is and Roy's book explains why in a very easy-to-read and sometimes funny way.
