Anyone who has worked in carbon long enough will have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of avoided deforestation. Controversies aside, it remains a force to be reckoned with, accounting for nearly half of all issued nature-based credits.
And the sector is turning a leaf. Methodologies such as Verra’s much-touted VM0048 have been approved for CCP eligibility. Geospatial monitoring is breaking new barriers.
In the lead up to COP30 in Brazil - home to the planet’s largest tropical carbon sink - this positive momentum matters more than ever in restoring faith in forestry.
Watch our webinar replay to learn how you can leverage what we’ve learned from rating 60+ avoided deforestation projects. With a particular focus on REDD+, our sector lead scientist showed how our platform can:
Help developers embed quality early in their project design
Support investors with shortlisting low-risk opportunities
Equip brokers and buyers to spot impactful projects
With project quality varying from ‘A’ to ‘D’, this is your chance to learn how to aim for the higher end of the rating scale, and see what it takes to raise the bar even further.
