Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Carbon Credits?

Carbon credits are your eco-conscious currency, a tradeable token that empowers you to balance out a tonne of carbon dioxide or its greenhouse gas equivalent.

What does it mean to retire a carbon credit?

Retiring a carbon credit means it is permanently removed from circulation, ensuring that the carbon dioxide it represents is genuinely offset and cannot be claimed again. It’s a crucial step that signifies the completion of a promise to counterbalance emissions, solidifying an organization’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.

What is California Assembly Bill 1305 (AB 1305)?

California Assembly Bill 1305 (AB 1305) mandates transparency for businesses involved in the carbon credit market. It affects companies selling carbon offsets in California, requiring them to disclose comprehensive project details, and those making net-zero or similar claims, who must now reveal information about the carbon credits they purchase. Aimed at enhancing market transparency and combating greenwashing, AB 1305 sets forth detailed disclosure requirements for both carbon credit sellers and buyers, including project specifics and verification of emissions reduction. Businesses must comply by January 1, 2025, to avoid penalties, emphasizing the need for a robust, defensible climate action strategy to support their climate claims.

What are the differences between carbon offsetting and carbon removal?

Carbon offsetting involves compensating for emissions by investing in projects that reduce, avoid, or capture greenhouse gases elsewhere, while carbon removal specifically refers to the capture of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to be stored permanently. Offsetting can include a variety of projects, including renewable energy and methane capture, whereas removal is focused on directly reducing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

How does investing in carbon offsets support global climate goals?

Investing in carbon offsets contributes directly to global climate goals by financing projects that reduce, remove, or avoid greenhouse gas emissions. These investments accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy, support renewable energy and conservation efforts, and enable businesses and individuals to take immediate action on their carbon emissions, complementing broader emission reduction strategies.

What role do nature-based solutions play in carbon offsetting?

Nature-based solutions leverage the earth’s natural processes, such as photosynthesis in forests and soil carbon sequestration, to capture and store carbon dioxide. These projects are vital for carbon offsetting because they not only help balance emissions but also preserve biodiversity, protect ecosystems, and support local communities, offering a holistic approach to tackling climate change.

Why choose blended portfolios for carbon removal projects?

Blended portfolios mix different types of carbon removal projects, balancing risk and maximizing the environmental impact. This approach allows businesses to support a variety of initiatives, from nature-based solutions like reforestation to technologically driven methods like direct air capture, ensuring a robust and resilient strategy towards achieving carbon neutrality.

How do high-integrity carbon offsets contribute to sustainability?

High-integrity carbon offsets are rigorously verified projects that not only capture or reduce greenhouse gases but also support broader environmental and social goals. They ensure that every dollar spent contributes to sustainable development, biodiversity conservation, and community well-being, thereby amplifying the positive impact of your carbon offsetting efforts.

How do carbon credits on the blockchain work?

Blockchain technology introduces unmatched integrity to carbon credits, ensuring each represents a real step towards emission reduction. With its foundation in trust and transparency, this system allows your business to confidently engage in global sustainability efforts. Serving as a secure and unalterable ledger, blockchain meticulously records the issuance and retirement of each credit, providing a reliable pathway for your business to make a significant contribution to carbon reduction. This approach not only bolsters your sustainability credentials but also aligns with a future where every action towards the environment is accountable and impactful.
