About this event
The voluntary carbon market plays an important role in helping companies address harder-to-abate emissions and contribute to climate mitigation efforts. Article 6 of the Paris Climate Agreement has the potential to significantly change the voluntary carbon market by establishing a regulated international carbon credit market. To date, some companies have been reluctant to purchase carbon removal credits due to quality concerns and lack of understanding about the implications of Article 6.
The failure to ratify Article 6 at COP28 has introduced uncertainty about its future. At the same time, the emergence and consolidation of voluntary standards promises to provide clarity in an uneven market. Many corporate buyers are now re-evaluating their approach and trying to navigate a shifting policy landscape.
Join Carbon Direct Chief Scientist Dr. Julio Friedmann and Senior Forest Scientist Dr. Bodie Cabiyo for a live webinar to learn about the future of Article 6 and what it means for your carbon removal strategy, including:
- How high-profile carbon credit quality issues may affect future credit supply and oversight
- How emerging voluntary standards affect project quality and buyer risk, and how those might affect Article 6 structure and progress
- Best practices for corporate buyers to evaluate carbon projects to mitigate risk and maximize impact
