Executive Director - Canopy
Please excuse the wind noise in the video above! We took it opportunistically while out on Wirangu and Nauo Country,?visiting?our environmental planting carbon project at 'Glandore', a property on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula.
As you'll hear in the video, the planting at this property is a great example of how Canopy designs carbon projects to maximise outcomes for nature.?It's a new project, with the first phase planted just last year and more hectares to be added this year, but we're really happy with how it's?looking so far. This project is forecast to generate over 270,000 high integrity ACCUs over the 25-year crediting period.?
Your go-to summary of recent news and developments across environmental markets:
- The evolving role of carbon markets in contributing to the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss has been underscored by this new report from the Carbon Market Institute.?The report?combines insights from a range of experts to provide an analysis of?the state of Australia's carbon market and its contribution to net zero targets.
- The Australian government will only need to make ‘minor changes’ to the replacement environmental plantings method, and continues its work on the proposed integrated farm land management (IFLM) method. The aim is?to have a draft method shared this month,?followed by public consultation.
- Forest conservation and reforestation have a solid scientific basis for voluntary carbon crediting, according to a recent peer-reviewed study, though several other nature-based solutions (NBS) are less certain to effectively mitigate emissions.
- Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has set out corporate guidelines for beyond value chain emissions, with the aim of?encouraging?companies to invest in emissions reductions. Their Board of Trustees' statement clarifying the use of environmental attribute certificates for abatement purposes on Scope 3 emissions could function as an additional tool to tackle climate change through the voluntary carbon market.
- Interest in businesses developing Nature-Positive Strategies?has rapidly increased over the?past few years as pressure has grown on their responsibility to understand?and address?their nature-related risks. Pollination have published a report providing practical guidance for corporates?on how to design and implement a nature-positive aligned corporate strategy.
