Soil Carbon is the carbon stored in soils that exists in organic and inorganic forms. Sequestering carbon in soil is a natural way of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere with a lesser impact on land and water with a lesser need for energy at reduced costs. Let us dive deeper into what soil carbon is and what are its benefits.
Explore the concept of carbon credits and their role in mitigating climate change. Understand how these credits incentivize emission reduction efforts and contribute to a more sustainable future. Discover their significance in promoting environmental action and cleaner technologies.
Verification and accuracy are very critical in validating Carbon offsets to generate carbon credits in carbon markets. MRV is a process of measuring the emission reductions of a specific mitigation activity and report the findings to an accredited third party and finally verify the reductions so that they can be certified, and credits can be issued. This reduces transaction costs and time to market hastening the issue of carbon credits.
The world faces a formidable challenge to limit temperatures below 1.5˚C. Many countries are looking into carbon markets as a transformation required to address climate crisis. Voluntary Carbon markets offer a way to offset the business carbon footprint to fight global warming. Blockchain technology can be a differentiator in the much-needed credible carbon credit market
As this climate crisis worsens, companies are pressurized by investors, regulators and customers to improve their sustainability and report their GHG emissions. Businesses need the best accountability and sustainability platform to manage the carbon accounting, reduction in emissions, managing and reporting in their sustainability strategy. Look into the 8 must haves of the right Carbon Accounting software for your organization.
A necessity or a burden? The dairy industry has produced a variety of milk and its by-products over centuries and today it is on the cusp of a negative climate impact. The global dairy community is accelerating climate action and working to reduce its impact on the planet. Let’s look at what the future hold for the industry and how optimizing productivity and reducing emissions can sustain billions of livelihoods in the future.
There is a climate emergency now and incremental steps to address GHG emissions are not enough. Companies need to adopt every strategy to achieve emission reduction goals and Carbon Offsets is one such tool, if used responsibly can accelerate your journey to net zero. While carbon offsets refer to the projects and activities that reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, carbon credits represent a specific unit, one metric tonne of carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere
Explore the world of carbon accounting and its pivotal role in mitigating climate change. Discover key strategies, methodologies, and best practices to embrace sustainability and reduce carbon footprints. Dive into the journey towards a greener, more responsible future.
As the #WorldFoodDay is approaching, join us in a session with Ritesh Gupta, Sustainability Head, R&D Nestle India and Manu Bhardwaj from TraceX Technologies to talk about all things sustainability and understand how enterprises today are addressing carbon targets.
Agriculture sector has a dual role in the decarbonizing economy with agriculture being both a source and a sink for GHGs. Carbon Neutral agriculture refers to the net-zero balance of emissions and sinks of all the greenhouse gases on the farms in terms of their CO2 equivalents that result in climate neutral systems. Carbon farming is a whole farm approach to optimize carbon capture.
There is an increasing momentum among organizations to reach the commitments of net-zero and carbon neutrality. However, there are no standard guidelines to achieve the same. You need to avoid green pledges and should be able to measure and verify the emissions and show the world how it is going against your targets. Get your definitions right and start your decarbonization journey!
Discover the Power of Carbon Farming: Learn how carbon farming practices can help combat climate change, enhance soil health, and boost agricultural sustainability in our latest blog post. Dive into the world of regenerative agriculture and its positive impact on the environment.
Coffee is among the top traded commodities after oil. This is going to cause pressure on tropical forests and habitats. Therefore, in order to make it sustainable, the amount of greenhouse gas emissions needs to be measured at each stage. The biggest contribution of blockchain is the ability to measure carbon footprints along with IoT sensors and generate data that can be analyzed and aggregated.
Digitization of the supply chain is one way to reduce carbon emissions. Tracking carbon emissions with end-to-end traceability solutions should be a competitive edge to organizations to drive the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Carbon Traceability should be the way forward to reach the net zero goals.
Blockchain technology helps businesses to bring credibility to their carbon offsetting strategies to backup their net zero commitments with public transparency.
