Streaming is a financing method borrowed from the mining and minerals industry where a financier provides up-front cash in exchange for a future stream (share) of a certain commodity at a discounted price.

In this article, we look at biochar carbon offsets, applications of biochar, and the risks associated with such carbon-offsetting projects.

Globally ruminants are estimated to produce methane and other greenhouse gases equivalent to 3.1 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere annually.

Geospatial technology is an emerging field of study concerned with the geographic mapping and analysis of the Earth and is increasingly used within the VCM to help establish and monitor carbon offset projects.

SBTi’s position has evolved and now explicitly calls companies to take urgent action beyond their value chain, using both carbon avoidance and removal offsets.

In this video series our team looks at some of the core concepts, principles, and challenges in carbon offsetting.

In this article, we explore what are market-based carbon pricing initiatives and what are the main drivers explaining the wide variation in carbon prices in the voluntary offsetting market.

Soil carbon is solid carbon stored in soils, existing in organic and inorganic forms. Read more on its practices, risks, and methodologies in our article!

Carbon avoidance is the process of preventing emissions from entering the atmosphere. In many cases this is cheaper and easier than carbon removal.

As the world progresses towards net-zero, some businesses have a harder time reducing their emissions. In this article, we discuss why that is the case and how they can adapt.

In this article we will review initiatives which are underway with the goal to bring standardisation and definitional agreements within the VCM. We look at the current issues with quality and how new initiatives may offer solutions.

Companies have started to recognize the urgency of climate action as demonstrated by a rapid acceleration of corporate’s net zero plans. However, in the absence of specific guidance on how to achieve these net zero targets, corporate approaches to climate action and environmental claims have varied widely to-date.

Previously, we have looked at the pathway for an organisation's transition to net-zero and beyond. Inevitably, most organisations will need to invest in carbon offsets to reach net-zero as their operations begin to fundamentally decarbonise, and an organisation may continue to invest in further offsetting projects to reach a climate positive goal.

Whether you manage an international business, a complex financial portfolio, or simply your personal affairs as a citizen, decarbonising your activities requires understanding a number of important terminologies.
