Our take
Climate change is fast heading for a point of no return, and it is increasingly important for businesses to trend towards net zero. However, achieving zero emissions by changing business habits and operations is a daunting task. Climate Impact Partners offers companies the chance to purchase carbon offsets, fund climate projects, and move towards their net zero goals, in a managed and simple manner.
Carbon offsetting is a tool for businesses to achieve net zero by purchasing parts in projects that have net negative carbon impact, in a similar way to purchasing stock. Climate Impact Partners sources and certifies the projects, so that clients merely have to choose where they would like to invest. Additionally, the company provides certification for businesses to showcase carbon neutrality, and a calculator for small businesses to assess their carbon impact.
Recently, the trade of carbon offsets has come under scrutiny, as opacity makes it difficult to ensure that purchasing them directly funds action on the ground. However, Climate Impact Partners, which is a leader in the space, demonstrates a commitment to carbon reduction by actioning the largest companies in the world to commit to reducing emissions. The interest in carbon markets is projected to increase alongside emissions regulations, presenting an excellent opportunity for Climate Impact Partners to grow.
