2. About carbon credits
Carbon credits represent a verified reduction of one ton of carbon dioxide (tCO2e) or its equivalent in greenhouse gases. Companies buy these credits to offset their own emissions.
Carbon credits are generated by projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, such as generating renewable energy, planting trees and improving energy efficiency.
There are several certification standards, carbon credit registration and regulatory bodies, each with their own requirements and verification processes. Some common ones include the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), the Gold Standard (GS), and the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM).
The price of carbon credits varies depending on the type of project, credit quality and market demand. Prices can range from a few cents to tens of dollars per ton.
The effectiveness of carbon credits depends on the quality of the projects and the general integrity of the carbon market. While there are some concerns about possible greenwashing and lack of additionality (reductions that would have happened anyway), well-designed carbon credit systems can play an essential role in mitigating climate change.
Purchasing carbon credits can be a way to contribute to emissions reduction efforts, but it's important to remember that individual actions and internal business goals, such as reducing energy consumption and transport emissions, are also crucial .
Some limitations include the difficulty in accurately measuring and verifying emissions reductions and the possibility of leakage (emissions migrating to other locations due to project activities).
Invest in clean technologies, support the Renewable energy development and advocating for stricter climate policies are all much broader alternative approaches to addressing climate change.
Several resources provide information about carbon credits, including the websites of carbon offset providers, certification bodies, and NGOs working on climate change. Some reliable sources include:
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
