Climate leaders are integrating co-benefits like ecological restoration into their net-zero strategies. A new Carbon Direct report, written in collaboration with Meta, aims to build the supply of high-quality carbon removal projects that promote biodiversity.
The priorities and incentives of effective carbon dioxide removal and ecological restoration projects aren’t always aligned. This has led to a shortage of high-quality carbon removal credits that deliver these co-benefits.
The report, Opportunities for Ecological Restoration on the Voluntary Carbon Market, helps align these project goals to meet market demands. The report includes guidance for developers with best practices and market strategies that help buyers access and create demand for projects that maximize climate and ecological benefits.
