Companies should consider new approaches to using carbon credits

It’s been a rough couple of years for the voluntary carbon market, with allegations about the shaky integrity of various projects, and a huge slump in demand. Just a few days ago, Brazil’s environment minister warned that the market could be channelling money towards criminal groups that have allegedly been selling carbon credits from stolen land in the Amazon region.

But there are other — and perhaps better — ways for companies to use carbon credits than offsetting. At the heart of the controversy around offsetting is the problematic assertion that one carbon credit means one fewer tonne of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. That tidy claim can perhaps be made by some companies in the carbon removal space, such as Switzerland’s Climeworks, that use machines to suck precise quantities of CO2 from the air.
