Why buy carbon credits?
An explainer on how carbon credits contribute to net zero goals.
“The cumulative scientific evidence is unequivocal: Climate change is a threat to human well-being and planetary health. Any further delay in concerted anticipatory global action on adaptation and mitigation will miss a brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a livable and sustainable future for all”
(IPCC, Sept 2022)
What are carbon credits?
Verified carbon credits represent one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions avoided or removed from the atmosphere.
Each credit supports real projects that cut emissions or capture carbon, helping tackle climate change at scale.
Why buy carbon credits?
Buying carbon credits helps offset your carbon footprint, bringing you one step closer to net-zero. They are a tool, amongst others, for fighting climate change.
For businesses, it’s about more than reducing carbon—it’s about proving your commitment to sustainability and building trust with customers and partners.
Benefits of buying carbon credits
Carbon offsetting for companies has multiple benefits:
Every carbon credit you buy directly funds climate-positive projects, from reforestation to clean energy, helping accelerate global decarbonization efforts.
Demonstrating your commitment to sustainability builds trust with customers and stakeholders, enhancing your brand's reputation and strengthening customer loyalty.
Set your business apart by embedding carbon credits into your products and services. Consumers increasingly choose brands that prioritize climate action.
As carbon regulations tighten globally, buying credits helps businesses stay ahead of compliance, reducing legal risks and ensuring you're meeting emerging sustainability standards.
ESG-conscious investors are looking for businesses that prioritize sustainability. Carbon credits make your company more attractive to investors seeking long-term, responsible growth.
Align your business with third-party ESG standards and ensure your supply chain partners meet sustainability benchmarks. Carbon credits make compliance simpler and more transparent.
