Pretty much all the biggest companies and countries in the world have pledged to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 (or earlier). There are two ways to get there: 1. Reduce emissions as much as possible 2. Remove carbon from the atmosphere Experts agree: we should focus on reducing emissions first and only then use carbon credits to offset the remaining emissions. But, many companies skip straight to buying carbon credits to 'offset' their emissions. Here’s the problem: these credits are traded on the 'voluntary carbon market,' which is unregulated. This allows companies to claim they are green by buying cheap credits that often have zero positive impact on the climate. Not all carbon credits are bad. Some organizations do amazing work! For example, Soil Capital works with farmers transitioning to regenerative agriculture who improve soil health and store carbon in the soil. They measure and certify using a solid methodology and they focus on insetting rather than offsetting. In this case, buying certificates to lower your scope 3 emissions within your supply chain makes sense. However, buying random credits for projects like protecting an allegedly endangered forest in the Amazon doesn’t help much. That brings me to today’s topic: the EU Commission is developing a framework for robust, trustworthy, transparent, and permanent carbon credits. It's called the Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF). I had the privilege of discussing this with Christian Holzleitner, the head of unit for Carbon Removals at the EU Commission. He’s leading the team working on this new framework. I found our conversation was fascinating. We discussed how the CRCF could boost the transition to regenerative agriculture and agroforestry by rewarding farmers and foresters for their efforts. A key highlight was our debate on nature-based 🌱 vs. technology-based 🦾 carbon removal solutions. I pushed quite strongly for nature-based solutions, and while Christian agreed, he also offered some interesting counterarguments. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Listen to the full conversation on the latest Deep Seed podcast episode to find out more 🎧 Available on all streaming platforms (link in the comments below)
New Episode 🌿 I had the privilege to meet with Christian Holzleitner to discuss how carbon markets can drive the transition to regenerative agriculture and significantly impact our fight against climate change. We address the challenges of the current voluntary carbon market and the importance of developing a robust and transparent certification system to ensure the integrity and effectiveness of carbon removal efforts. One highlight of the conversation is our debate about nature-based 🌱 vs technology-based 🦾 carbon removal solutions. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Listen to the full conversation on the latest Deep Seed podcast episode to find out more 🎧 Available on all streaming platforms (link in the comments below) ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ This podcast was produced in collaboration with Soil Capital, a company that supports regenerative agriculture for food system resilience and climate action by financially rewarding farmers who enhance soil health.
