FINANCE NATURE-BASED CARBON PROJECTS

Limiting global warming to 1.5 °C demands rapid and widespread decarbonization. Financing carbon removal enables businesses to actively engage in climate action and balance unabated emissions today.

WHY FINANCE CLIMATE PROJECTS?

Financing carbon removal should be part of your holistic corporate climate strategy. After calculating your carbon footprint, you can purchase carbon credits from projects that prevent or remove an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. This process helps balance out emissions and supports your net-zero emissions goal.

Carbon offsetting is a mechanism used to compensate for corporate or individual carbon footprints through the purchase of carbon credits issued by accreditation standards to projects that remove GHG emissions from the atmosphere or avoid generating the emissions in the first place. Each credit is equal to one ton of CO2e that has not been emitted, often expressed as tCO2e. Once purchased, the credit is then retired through an internationally recognized and publicly viewable registry.

Financing carbon removal represents a crucial strategy in the global effort to combat climate change. By investing in our nature-based carbon sequestration projects and compensating for unavoidable emissions—such as those from business travel or logistics—you support concrete climate protection initiatives. By purchasing carbon credits from our international, nature-based projects, you not only mitigate emissions but also promote biodiversity, support local economies, and improve the livelihoods of the communities involved.

WHY WE NEED BOTH APPROACHES AT A TIME

THE NECESSITY OF EMISSIONS REDUCTION AND FINANCING CLIMATE PROJECTS

Climate science is clear: we must act now to limit global warming. By both reducing emissions and financing climate projects, we are not only taking direct responsibility for our current carbon footprint but also contributing to the development of sustainable initiatives that have a lasting positive impact. This dual strategy, where reducing and offsetting are part of the same holistic approach, accelerates our journey towards a net-zero emissions future while supporting ecological, economic, and social benefits globally.

Reducing emissions tackles the problem at its source by improving efficiency, transitioning to renewable energy, and innovating in technology and processes. Financing climate projects, meanwhile, compensates for the emissions we currently cannot avoid. It's an immediate and impactful action that supports reforestation, renewable energy projects, and community development—all essential for a holistic approach to climate change mitigation.

In essence, reducing emissions is about changing our future impact, while financing climate projects is about taking responsibility for our present impact. Together, they form a powerful combination for a sustainable, carbon-conscious future.

At FORLIANCE, we understand the delicate balance between emission reduction and financing climate projects. We support your business in implementing this integrated approach to make a tangible difference for the planet now and for the years to come.

How does financing climate projects work?

Financing climate projects involves investing in initiatives that remove or reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere. This is achieved through the purchase of carbon credits from accredited projects that either sequester CO2 or prevent emissions. Each credit represents one ton of CO2e mitigated, and these credits are retired through recognized registries to ensure transparency and accountability.

How long do carbon credits last?

Carbon credits represent a one-time reduction or removal of one ton of CO2e. Once a credit is purchased and retired, its environmental benefit is permanent. However, ongoing investment in new projects is necessary to continually offset emissions as they are produced.

How much does a carbon credit cost?

The cost of a carbon credit varies widely depending on the project type, location, certification standard, and market demand. Prices can range from a few dollars to over fifty dollars per ton of CO2e. Contact us at FORLIANCE for detailed pricing information and to find the best options for your needs.

 

What is a carbon credit?

A carbon credit is a certificate representing the reduction or removal of one ton of CO2e from the atmosphere through accredited projects. These credits can be purchased by individuals or organizations to offset their carbon emissions and are retired through internationally recognized registries to ensure they are not reused.
