For many companies, a simple and effective entry point is to measure and offset corporate travel emissions. Travel-related emissions are easily quantifiable and widely understood across organizations, making them a great place to begin.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u201cWe have a number of corporate buyers who, five, six, seven years ago, started simply by just accounting for their corporate-mandated travel. And then every year they add something onto it\u2026 But again, it\u2019s an iterative process. And the most important point is to just get started.\u201d \u2013 Jodi Manning, CEO, Cool Effect<\/span><\/i><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Starting small and gradually expanding your portfolio allows you to build a comprehensive strategy aligned with your business goals and sustainability targets.<\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"color: #004752; font-weight: bold;\">Diversify your portfolio with a variety of carbon credit projects<\/h1>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Different types of carbon credit projects play distinct roles in addressing climate change. Nature-based solutions (NBS), like mangrove restoration and soil carbon sequestration, offer co-benefits such as biodiversity conservation, water quality improvement, and community resilience. In contrast, engineered solutions, like methane capture or ozone-depleting substance destruction, address emissions from industrial sources directly. Some credits focus on avoidance (preventing emissions), while others target removals (actively drawing carbon from the atmosphere). Corporate buyers should allocate investments based on priorities such as co-benefits, price efficiency, or alignment with their value chains. The optimal strategy depends on each company\u2019s goals, budget, and sustainability approach.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cWe need all of the above for a fighting chance to keep temperature rise below 1.5 or 2 degrees. We need to incentivize the protection of tropical forests in Brazil and subsidize the distribution of cookstoves and water filters in Guatemala and Vietnam. We need to capture methane from landfills and industrial facilities. We need to destroy ozone depleting substances that disproportionately have a higher greenhouse gas warming potential and therefore contribute to the greenhouse gas effect. We also need to invest in reforestation of degraded lands and implanting of mangroves and we need to incentivize farmers and ranchers to sequester more carbon in the soil. And equally, we need to scale engineered technologies that work\u2026 Every ton of carbon removed or reduced makes a difference.\u201d <\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u2013 Uti Agarwal, Americas Carbon Originator, BP<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"color: #004752; font-weight: bold;\">Prioritize high-quality credits<\/h1>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Not all carbon credits deliver high-quality results.
