Nominations are open for Environmental Finance's Annual Voluntary Carbon Markets Rankings. This is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate impact and excellence in the voluntary carbon sector. The #WoodlandCarbonCode has been commended in the past and we’d greatly appreciate your support again this year. Submit your nomination for the best greenhouse gas crediting programme / standards setter by Friday 26 July. 🌳 The Woodland Carbon Code is the quality assurance standard for UK woodland carbon projects. 🌳 It empowers landowners, organisations and businesses to address climate change by creating and supporting woodland projects across the UK. 🌳 Informed by the latest research, the code is internationally recognised for high standards of sustainable forest and carbon management and endorsed by the International Carbon Reduction and Offset Alliance. 🌳 Our projects provide a range of social and environmental benefits for local communities, including biodiversity, employment and educational opportunities, advantages for farming and improvements in health and wellbeing. 🌳 Projects validated to the code have created 35,000 hectares of woodland and are predicted to sequester over 11.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent over their lifetime.

What makes a high-integrity carbon credit? Carbon Credit Quality Initiative (CCQI) aims to answer this question by scoring credit types – helping buyers and developers navigate their quality risks and benefits while encouraging market transparency. CCQI has assessed over 84% of carbon credit types available on the voluntary carbon market! This includes our latest assessment of the two REDD+ credit types planned and unplanned avoided deforestation, which will be released next week. 📢 Want to dive deeper into these scores? Join our June 26 webinar! CCQI experts Lambert Schneider and Felix Fallasch of Oeko-Institut e.V. and Pedro Martins Barata of Environmental Defense Fund will present on key insights from the assessment and answer your questions on REDD+ credit quality. 📅 Date: Tuesday, July 2 🕒 Time: 10:00am ET/ 4:00pm CEST 🔗 Register here: https://lnkd.in/gUQbJs5w CCQI aims to empower you to make informed decisions when engaging in the voluntary carbon market.

The Federal Government has created the Nature Finance Council to try and redirect private #capital towards #naturerepair and 'solve nature-related issues'. But they also want to grow a billion trees by 2030 for #climate, #jobs and #growth . Even #WWF want to reforest 10 million hectares of Australia’s degraded agricultural land. What about an approach that promotes & prioritises co-benefits? A #regenerative, #naturepositive model of #forestry could leverage investment growth in #renewable materials & wood-dependent technologies to help drive additional #investment in #nature and help embed #biodiversity in the growing #climatesmart #circular #bioeconomy . Regenerative forestry works to diversify and future-proof tree plantations so that they function more like natural forests, and generate perpetual, resilient systems of wood production and habitat. These 'working' forests are harvested and managed on a selective & sustainable basis. They never need be clear-felled (or replanted). They can therefore be used to protect, connect and enhance existing #ecological assets and be successfully integrated with other enterprises, increasing the scope and scale of opportunities for nature repair in #agricultural landscapes. Because these high-functioning forest assets provide a broader suite of products and services than plantations, they can also help de-risk & expand investment opportunities in the #forestry and #wood-products sector.

📝 Carbon Markets 101: Additionality and baselines for Improved Forest Management projects (IFM) This ACR blog answered some of the questions we get asked most about “additionality” and baseline setting for IFM. ❓ How do we ensure that project actions or policies exceed those that would have occurred without the project activity and without carbon market incentives? And how do we ensure a credible baseline scenario from which to measure performance? Read about ACR’s approach and how our IFM methodology addresses common questions: https://lnkd.in/emDAXvwV #carbonmarkets #climateaction #carboncredits

Thanks for sharing - Timely report from the #EPA Topical subject needing more airing
Established Chair of Social and Public Policy (University of Galway) and Chair of the Board of the National Museum of Ireland
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Ireland have published an important report on climate neutral land use scenarios from the SeQUEsTER project that I participated in, led by David Styles, with collaborators Colm Duffy, Rémi Prudhomme, George Bishop and mary ryan. Ireland’s agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector accounts over 43% of national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act 2021 commits Ireland to reach a legally binding target of net-zero GHG emissions by 2050, yet emissions from this sector continues to rise. Globally, it is assumed that land management will provide a net carbon sink to offset residual emissions from agriculture and other sectors. However, Ireland’s land sector is a large net emitter of carbon dioxide (CO2) owing to large areas of drained organic soils and low afforestation rates relative to forest harvest rates. EPA Research report, SeQUEsTER uniquely applied a back-casting approach to identify what “solutions” to net zero could look like for the agriculture and land sector. https://lnkd.in/eMeTs3Vk

"As restoring drained peatlands is one of the most cost-effective ways to reduce emissions in the agricultural sector, EU countries must restore at least 30% of drained peatlands by 2030 (at least a quarter shall be rewetted), 40% by 2040 and 50% by 2050 (where at least one-third shall be rewetted). Rewetting will remain voluntary for farmers and private landowners." https://lnkd.in/eji6UeSP

DIRECTIVE ON CARBON CREDIT MANAGEMENT FOR NATIONALLY DETERMINED CONTRIBUTIONS IMPLEMENTATION Directive No. 13/CT-TTg, recently issued by the Prime Minister on May 02, 2024, aims to strengthen carbon credit management to fulfill Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC). Vietnam has revised its NDC to uphold international commitments for emissions reduction, aligning with goals outlined in COP26. Implementing NDC obligations falls under nations' responsibilities to comply with climate agreements, covering emissions reduction targets across sectors like energy, agriculture, forestry, waste management, and industry. Achieving emission reduction targets by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050 requires developing and implementing greenhouse gas reduction strategies, alongside establishing carbon markets and credit management mechanisms. https://lnkd.in/giu_F3Q2 #carbon #credit #offset #inset #environmental #sustainable #VTN #Vietnam #Law
