Globally, 2.2 billion people don't have reliable access to clean drinking water. That's roughly equivalent to the population of China and India combined. Private sector leaders simply can't afford to ignore global water scarcity concerns. Investing in clean water projects is not just a social or environmental responsibility, but a strategic investment in the long-term health of a business. So how can companies embrace their responsibility to serve as good stewards of water? One of the best ways is through trees. Forbes Nonprofit Council | Forbes

We invest in carbon credits where they'll make the most impact ?? In partnership with Conservation International, the Alto Mayo project supports sustainable farming and forest conservation that's driving planet-shaping impact ?? ?? 8.4m metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions avoided from entering the atmosphere — equal to removing more than 150,000 cars off the road each year ?? 500 sustainable jobs created along with other financial incentives for locals ?? 250k+ people in the Alto Mayo basin have access to water via streams protected by the forest. Together, we're building a more sustainable future?— one tree, one community, and one impactful choice at a time. Photo Credit: Everland

We are bold enough to believe that time isn't an obstacle, it's an opportunity. Cleaning water. Restoring the Earth. Supporting biodiversity. When we work to plant trees together, we are bold enough to believe that we can change the trajectory of how trees can make our future better. Every single tree matters. And you hold the power to help. We need everyone to be a tree planter. Are you bold enough to believe?

Not all carbon credits are created equal. While the primary purpose of these credits is to mitigate climate impact, nature-based credits offer additional benefits that extend beyond carbon reduction. These are known as co-benefits and can have positive impacts on areas like biodiversity, local economies, and social outcomes. Understanding the co-benefits of nature-based carbon credits is important to help corporates make informed decisions about which carbon credits to invest in.

As businesses strive to tackle climate change, a growing trend called greenhushing—downplaying or staying silent about green initiatives—is taking hold. In fact, 58% of the world's most climate-conscious companies are choosing not to communicate their environmental actions due to fear of public scrutiny. This comes at a high cost for our planet. Transparency is crucial in this all-hands-on-deck moment in the fight against climate change. When businesses keep their climate actions under wraps, they miss the opportunity to inspire others, attract investment, and drive meaningful change. ?? Companies like those in the Symbiosis Coalition are setting the bar by openly sharing their commitments to high-quality, transparent carbon projects. ?? Transparency doesn't just benefit the environment—it boosts business too. Consumers and employees are increasingly loyal to companies that lead on climate action. ?? At the Arbor Day Foundation, we've seen firsthand how sharing success stories in tree planting and other initiatives sparks collaboration and drives momentum. Silence isn’t a sustainable strategy. Progress requires us to share both our wins and our challenges. Let’s be bold enough to believe in the power of transparency and the ripple effect it can create. Together, we can drive the change our planet needs.

Many companies hesitate to publicize their carbon credit purchases due to fear of criticism, but staying silent actually slows progress. The carbon market is maturing with higher standards, creating opportunities for companies to lead and shape the market. The Symbiosis Coalition, including giants like Google and Microsoft, is setting the pace by supporting nature-based solutions and transparency, showing that collective action can drive meaningful climate change solutions. At Arbor Day Carbon, we believe in the power of early adopters to make a positive impact. Contact us?at?https://lnkd.in/gpBYAUJz?to learn how you can get involved! https://lnkd.in/gWaYGE_3
