Know the difference between carbon-neutral, net-zero, and climate positive

It all started in the 90s when international conferences took up a crucial issue of sustainable development. Decades after discussing climate-related challenges, now governments, people and corporations are actually assessing and contributing to the sustainability journey of the planet. The target set to lower the global temperatures is one such step. Such initiatives have turned people’s heads towards ever-pressing issues of global warming and associated challenges.

Here, often we are stormed with a sea of information that we focus majorly on the context rather than the significance of terms on an individual basis. Sustainability, climate change, net-zero, carbon emissions are the buzzwords. The context remains the same as that of climate change but fundamentally they are different. Everyone, including companies, tend to understand the climate lingo but hardly they are clear about the goals. Read on further and know the difference among the concepts of carbon-neutral, net-zero and climate positive.

Carbon neutral:

As the name suggests, carbon-neutral is the balancing out of carbon emissions from your firm. It is more like owning a complete responsibility for one’s own carbon emissions. Corporates and companies need to assess and analyse their carbon emissions. Such analysis gives an idea about the number of carbon emissions that need to be balanced out. It is then that firms plan to come out carbon neutral by saving an equivalent amount of carbon emissions somewhere else in the world.

Net-zero:

The Net-zero concept is a simple concept of balancing out the net emissions created. Here emissions are of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide. These levels are reached when anthropogenic emissions balance out with the help of pre-determined activities.

Climate Positive:

It lies in that much-awaited stage in the sustainability journey, wherein companies or entities tend to remove an additional amount of carbon from the atmosphere. It has reached the level of achieving net-zero emissions and now stands beyond the same. This term is often used interchangeably with climate negative.

Is your company carbon neutral or climate positive or has net-zero emissions?

Well, after knowing these are different and important concepts, a firm needs to introspect about these. Raising these questions can help us achieve our environmental goals faster. Prior to that, your company needs to analyse emissions. Accordingly, you can set realistic goals and plan a roadmap. For the same, consult a team of professionals dealing in the same.

Hopefully, tech giants and corporates are taking steps towards assessing their goals and contributions. However, a lot needs to be done collectively on this pressing issue, until we balance out our needs with our climate’s needs.

All You Need To Know About Carbon Finance

Carbon emissions can be controlled in so many ways on any given level; be it organizational, industrial, or else; but only so many ways you can use to reach the desired threshold to enjoy the sweet zone of not needing any other organization to cancel out your exceeded margin. Carbon credits (the credits which an organization has that allow them a certain amount of carbon emission in a year) are used by either sticking to the emission allowances or providing funding for sustainable projects that actually create green energy.

If the equilibrium has to be maintained, this is commonly executed & achieved through an exchange, referred to as Carbon Financing. An annual payment cycle is started to fund your company’s project partner, be it public, private, NGO, etc for the greenhouse gases emission reductions created once the project is fully operational.

Carbon financing is a great way to boost the financial viability of cutting-edge projects to give them a longer life & less government interference. It can also generate an added revenue stream and gives an opportunity for the effective transfer of technologies, expertise & knowledge. It provides a medium of leveraging new public & private investments so that the investment kitty inflate & can help in projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions allowing all to contribute.

But to leverage carbon financing to your advantage, organizations have to first file for a certification called CER (Certified Emissions Reduction Certificate) and get the audit done to pass for it.

A Certified Emissions Reduction Certificate, or a CER, is provided by the United Nations to member nations for averting one tonne of CO2 emissions by taking measures suitable for the environment. Countries with economies, both traditional & developed (as defined in the Kyoto Protocol) use CERs to help them reach their emission goals. These countries are able to reach their targets and are easily able to set future goals as it makes the endeavor of reducing greenhouse gases emissions more achievable.

Carbon Financing is a way to help organizations and help them out with their slab of emissions, at same the time for the government to be a watchdog over how much they are using or misusing the resources and abusing the limits they have to adhere to

 

Here are some facts regarding Climate Finance:

1) The UNFCCC, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement call for financial assistance from countries with more financial resources to those that are less endowed and more vulnerable. (Drishti IAS - https://bit.ly/2Wy0CEb )

2) Under the Climate Change Action Plan for 2016-2020, the World Bank Group laid out a plan to increase climate finance from 21% to 28 % of the Bank’s total budget and has surpassed these targets for the second year in a row (Source – World Bank https://bit.ly/3kCj9aI)

3) The largest source of climate financing in India is public funding, which is routed through budgetary allocation and several funds and schemes related to climate change established by the Government of India such as National Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) and National Adaptation Fund (NAF). (Drishti IAS - https://bit.ly/2Wy0CEb )

It's necessary for the environment to have people who are taking care of it and helping it rest in the safest of embraces. The continuous industrial development and growth of infrastructure, new machines, and technology taking over the physical human efforts account for almost all the emissions. With this change, comes our responsibility to control or rather change altogether for the sake of this planet. Fortunately, or unfortunately, we can just do the former i.e. tending towards our responsibility to control.

Know About Forest Carbon Offsets & Their Relevance

Forest carbon credit considered as a non visible forest product” that can be a viable alternative source of income for forest landowners. It’s a metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), of whichthe emission is newly sequestered and is purchased by GHG emitters as a cost-control measure to make up for emissions occurring elsewhere.

Managing forests for carbon emission offsetting gives the world the opportunity to reverse or at least sequestered the emissions that they have already made or they are about to make into the atmosphere. The total GHG emissions are increasing rapidly. Most of the GHG emissions of all time have been done in the last 40 years of our existence. More GHG emission mean climatic shifts which leads to intensive droughts somewhere and acute floods in other areas of the world. Because of those blindly done deforestation which hampers the smooth functioning of the forest and gets in the middle of the process of habitats having their share of biodiversity.

Researches around the world point to a fact that forests can play a vital role in mitigating the inimical effects of climate change and can help in putting a shackle on this ever-increasing global warming. Quality and Quantity of herbs, restoring the disbalances caused by humans in nature, water as a resource in quantity & quality, providing wildlife a habitat to call home and protecting biodiversity in that habitat.

Forest & Carbon Offset

To get an understanding of the carbon offset markets, we need to know how CO2 is measured and traded for various purposes. CO2 being the major contributor as the GHGs in the atmosphere, promoting global warming. All other gases are not actually come that much into consideration because CO2 is more easily measurable that others. The carbon unit in which it is measured is “metric tons of CO2 Equivalent” often seen written as MtCO2e or tCO2e & also called as “Carbon Credit or Carbon offset”. Currently sellers of carbon offsets are majorly forest landowners who are looking to opening up different forest-based revenue streams by helping out the GHG emitters in exchange of a handsome payday.

Carbon Marketplaces

There are two distinct types of carbon markets; voluntary and compliance markets

Carbon markets are divided into two subdivisions – voluntary &compliance markets.

Voluntary markets exist where companies or individuals buy carbon credits for purely a voluntary basis. Many companies voluntarily purchase carbon credits to demonstrate their commitment to protecting the environment and to demonstrate corporate social responsibility.

Voluntary markets are there for the individuals and companies so that they buy the credits for the sole purpose of showcasing their concern towards the environment, its well-being and their willingness to go above and beyond to correct it. It fulfils their commitment to live up to the corporate social responsibility they owe to the society.

Prices for the carbon offset in voluntary market, globally, can fall anywhere between a wide range.Forest authorities & land usage projects are somewhat larger voluntary carbon project categories than any other kind. There are numerous factors that influence the price determination of carbon credits at the very point in time for e.g.,the type & location of project that is put up against asking for the credits, additional deemed project benefits that will play out to be an influencing factor, marketing efforts & many others.

The emission stays within limit as it is cancelled out by the very nature of the deal and there is no margin left to betray the environment in any case.

Compliance Carbon Market

Compliance carbon markets are such marketplaces through which “regulated by the cap & trade” entities obtain & surrender emissions allowances or better known as ‘offsets’ in order to meet predetermined regulatory targets.

In case of cap & trade programs; participants i.e., both emitters and intermediaries such as financial institutions; both are allowed to trade allowances to make profit from the unused allowances or for meeting regulatory requirements.
