?? The open carbon protocol partners with BeZero Carbon to enhance the integrity and transparency of carbon credit methodology development. As part of this partnership, our voting expert panelists, tasked with reviewing and approving OCP methodologies, will now gain full access to BeZero's comprehensive ratings and in-depth sector insights. This will equip experts with all relevant information in order to strengthen their capacity to identify and address potential issues with various project types, ensuring methodologies meet and exceed industry standards. This collaboration ensures stakeholders—from developers to buyers—can trust that methodologies are vetted with the highest standards of accountability and precision. This collaboration reinforces the OCP’s mission to create a transparent, accountable and forward thinking carbon credit system that builds trust and drives meaningful climate solutions. Thomas Annicq, CEO and co-founder of oneshot.earth, says “We are thrilled to enhance the Open Carbon Protocol with this added layer of trust. We look forward to seeing our expert panelists harness BeZero’s valuable insights to set new benchmarks for excellence in carbon credit methodologies.” Tommy Ricketts, CEO and co-founder of BeZero Carbon, commented: “Access to project information is the backbone of success for carbon markets. That’s why our rating methodologies, sector frameworks and headline ratings are always public. By providing the Open Carbon Protocol’s expert panel with full access to our platform, we’re raising the bar to ensure the most robust project methodologies come to market.” ??

?? The Open Carbon Protocol Partners with Kita to Elevate Trust in Carbon Credit Issuance At New York Climate Week, we were reminded of the vital importance that collaboration plays in the voluntary carbon market to build trust and alignment. The OCP is designed for transparency and partnership, and our collaboration with Kita is a testament to this commitment. Kita offers institutional-grade insurance on carbon credit issuance, bringing a deep understanding of risk management to the table. Together, we are leveraging their expertise and our innovative registry model to drive a more impactful and reliable voluntary carbon market. Read the press release detailing our partnership below.

?? We are proud to have joined fellow climate leaders in singing this Open Letter to Future Carbon Credit Buyers. The letter reiterates how carbon credits are a pragmatic approach to accelerating climate action. It helps us to conceptualize the importance of carbon markets by articulating that: ? ???????? ????% ???? ?????????????????? ???????? ?????????????? ?????????????? ?????? ???? ?????????? ???? ???????? ?????????? ??????????. This is because we don't yet have the technology at scale needed to reduce completely, and carbon credits are critical for bridging this gap. ? Companies that use credits are ??.?? ?????????? ???????? ???????????? ???? ???? ?????????????????????????? year after year because they are effectively putting a price on their carbon emissions, which creates a financial incentive to drive continuous, meaningful reductions. ? Carbon markets allows for ?????????????????? ?????????????? ???????????? as well as ?????????????????? ?????????????? ????????????????????. ? Using a diverse array of high-quality credits can ?????????????? ???????? ????????????-?????????? ?????? ???????????????????? ??????????????????, both of which are necessary to achieve our goals. We urge you to sign on and share this letter of support. One tonne of CO2e tackled today is more important than one tomorrow.

?? Introducing the Hybrid Credit We are excited to share our latest perspective piece explaining our innovative approach to addressing permanence concerns associated with carbon credits. Our strategy introduces a hybrid credit model that effectively bridges the gap between the durability of nature-based solutions and the common hesitations around ex-ante solutions. ?? Find our suggestions for implementation of a hybrid credit on our website, and reach out if you have an interest in a partnership to explore case studies. #HybridCredit #Permanence #CDR #NBS #VoluntaryCarbonMarket

Excited to see how our work slots into the initiatives launched by Mark Carney to scale the carbon markets. It's almost like it was on purpose... Our standard-setting platform and registry, the open carbon protocol supports the supply-side initiative of the The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM) Our work on rightsizing with Calyx Global and our work on the environmental ledger supports the demand-side efforts of VCMI and Global Carbon Market Utility with Filipe Blackwood Oliveira and Chris Canavan. This ledger work is an industry-wide collaborative effort with Ben Rattenbury from Sylvera, Sebastien Cross from BeZero Carbon, Donna Lee from Calyx Global, Alicia Seiger from Stanford University, Harvard University's Ely Sandler and Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Tod Hynes, Andrew Watson of Rethinking Capital, and now International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Financial Accounting Standards Board . And so many others! It takes a village! One tonne of CO2e tackled today is more important than one tonne of CO2e tackled tomorrow.

The First CCP Methodology labels were released this morning. We are excited to announce that our portfolio of credits is now 100% CCP approved! Contact us at [email protected] to learn more! We're excited to see the The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM) corroborate our diligence work and that they have chosen the same project types as us in their first #CCP approvals. One tonne of CO2e tackled today is more important than one tonne of CO2e tomorrow! #ICVCM #CCP https://lnkd.in/dGmz9umE

Deepening our Ledger Approach ?? At oneshot.earth, we are piloting the implementation of the environmental liabilities framework by?creating a Living Ledger. By recording our own carbon emissions as liabilities, and holding carbon credits from our OSE bundle as assets, this ledger provides a clear and accountable way to track and manage our environmental impact. We believe our approach can serve as a starting point for any company, regardless of size, to visualize their environmental impacts and work towards reducing their liabilities. We invite CFOs, CSOs, carbon market participants, standard setters, and anyone else with a deep interest in the concept of an environmental ledger to connect with us about growing this approach. #EnvironmentalLiabilities #EnvironmentalLedger #CarbonAccounting #NetZero https://lnkd.in/gCm_BX9U

Introducing the Living Environmental Ledger v 1.0! The team at oneshot.earth and open carbon protocol just developed our first iteration of an environmental ledger. We quantified our emissions as well as we could and consider those liabilities. We built up a high integrity portfolio of carbon credits as assets to balance those. We are committing to maintaining an asset:liabilities ratio of 2, effectively creating an internal carbon tax. This carbon tax will compel faster decarbonization. As we get better at tackling the uncertainties on both sides of the ledger, the ledger will get better over time. We'd love your feedback and reactions. We are excited by the sheer number of organizations out there that share this worldview and look forward to working together to continue bending the curve as quickly as possible with as much integrity as possible. https://lnkd.in/eT8Ph7ZJ One tonne today is more important than one tonne tomorrow! #environmentalledger #livingledger

Measuring @oneshot.earth's emissions footprint turned out to be even harder than anticipated. Kim Armor shares her experience as a CFO of going through the exercise. Worth a read!
