Navigating Carbon Offsets with Everclime

As businesses strive to meet sustainability goals, cutting through the noise of carbon credits becomes crucial. Here’s some key considerations to make informed decisions and determine what’s in your business.?

Let's dive in.

Investing in Impact

At Everclime we see investing in impact encompassing efforts directed towards both people and the planet. On the people's side, it involves allocating resources towards projects and initiatives that generate positive social outcomes, such as improving access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities.

For the planet, impact investing goes beyond sustainability to actively regenerate and restore natural ecosystems. This means making a positive impact on biodiversity, soil health, water quality, and overall ecosystem resilience.

Organisations can achieve nature positivity by investing in tree planting, nature restoration, endangered species protection, reef conservation, among others.

What’s in it for your business?

Whether sustainability, emissions, and impact are important to your business now or in the future, Everclime believes that even small changes can benefit both the economy and the plane. We help organisations gain access to the knowledge to understand, operationalise and make it commercially viable. Whether you need to meet regulatory requirements, address partner or brand pressures, or achieve market and consumer goals, starting is much easier and just one decision away. Be honest about where you are in your journey, build the foundations that make it economically viable, and tell your story: where you are today, where you want to be tomorrow, and what your legacy will be with the support of your stakeholders.

Types of Carbon Credits

Carbon credits come in two main forms: avoidance and removal.

1. Avoidance Credits: These prevent carbon from being emitted in the first place. Common examples include:
2. Removal Credits: These physically remove carbon from the atmosphere. Examples include:

What’s the benefit for you? Investing in avoidance credits can be a cost-effective way to make a significant impact now, while removal credits are essential for long-term sustainability. Balancing both types in your impact portfolio can optimise your environmental impact and appeal to a broader audience.

Selecting the Right Projects

When choosing carbon offset projects, these are the key factors to consider:?

• Price: Cost is a significant driver. Credits vary in price based on the type of project, its location, and its perceived quality and reliability.
• Geography: Companies may prefer projects in regions where they operate or where their customers reside, aligning their carbon offset strategy with their greater value chain.
• Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Projects that contribute to the United Nations SDGs provide additional social and environmental benefits beyond carbon reduction.
• Project Integrity and Verification: Ensuring that? projects deliver their intended outcomes is critical. Everclime performs due diligence on its project portfolio, which we refer to as "Know Your Project" (KYP). The KYP involves verifying project's claims and project long-term viability.

What’s the benefit for you?

By selecting projects that align with your business values and resonate with your customers, employees, investors or stakeholders you can maximise the return on your sustainability investment. Everclime believes in encouraging localised impact and enabling businesses to contribute to local projects resulting in positive outcomes in the environment or country that your stakeholders live and operate in. Plus, you gain the confidence that your contributions are making a real difference.
