Navigating the voluntary carbon credit market to support net zero targets
Navigating the voluntary carbon credit market to support net zero targets
Of Forbes 2000 companies that have committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2030, a 2023 Net Zero Tracker study reports that 53% plan to use carbon credits, either to offset hard-to-eradicate emissions or to voluntarily advance their targets. However, the carbon offsetting market is still developing, and consumers, customers, and governments are scrutinizing the veracity of many claims. This Viewpoint provides guidance for companies that seek to incorporate carbon credits within their emissions strategies.

This Viewpoint explains the opportunities CCUS provides for businesses and its potential to address climate targets.
