Bending the Curve: TNC’s vision for the role of carbon credits in corporate net zero

The Nature Conservancy puts forward a pragmatic vision for the role carbon credits can play in corporates’ transition to net zero, identifying four use cases:
- Close the near-term emissions gap: 2024-2035
- Address unabated emissions: 2035-2050
- Neutralize residual emissions: 2050-2080
- Take responsibility for historical emissions: 2050-2080
As the Conservancy notes, “we are in a climate emergency – and we need to act accordingly. Now is the time to expand the number of climate solutions available, not limit it.”
This fact-filled report serves as a valuable resource for carbon project developers and corporate leaders who are making the case for increased use of carbon credits on the path to net zero.
