How VCM projects can support access to food and clean water
Here are some key takeaways
Carbon projects can deliver significant beyond-carbon impacts related to Zero Hunger (SDG 2) and Clean Water and Sanitation (SDG 6).
Since 2015, the number of issued credits that claim SDG 6 remains consistently higher than credits that claim SDG 2.
SDG 2 & 6 impacts are difficult to measure in the VCM due to the lack of country-level SDG data availability. Only 8% of SDG 2 & 6 indicators are scalable to the project level.
SDG 2 &/or 6 claims have positive impacts on price in the Energy and Household Devices sectors.
