💡 One more sleep to the IETA North America Climate Summit 2024! 💡 Join us tomorrow, 24th September 2024, for our side event as part of the conference's official programme. As the voluntary carbon market (VCM) evolves, addressing price volatility and improving transparency are crucial for participants across the ecosystem. Our panel discussion, "The science of #VCM pricing and implications for market standardisation," will examine how various attributes influence price dynamics; the gap between primary and secondary market prices; and what’s needed to catalyse the financial evolution of carbon credits as a vital asset class, in the global transition to a low-carbon economy. We’re bringing together a panel of experts to unpack these challenges, opportunities and more. Moderated by our Head of Intelligence, Julien Hall, the session will feature speakers including Ana Haurie from Respira International, Hugh McAlpine from GS Environmental and Joshua McCarron from Everland . Don’t miss this dynamic discussion. We hope to see you there! 📅 24 September 2024, 3:00pm – 4:00pm NYC local time at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel, 3rd Floor, 811 7th Avenue, W 53rd Street New York Find out more: https://lnkd.in/gCzcYMpZ #ClimateWeekNYC #IETA #IETANACS #carbonmarkets #climateaction

We’re proud to join a coalition of #carbonmarket leaders today to spotlight the urgent gap between rising emissions—driving climate and nature breakdown—and the investment needed to secure a more stable future for all life on Earth 🌎 This new Reduce and Invest campaign calls on CEOs, leaders and corporations to take decisive action: reduce emissions, while investing in projects that help to mitigate the effects of #climatechange. At Climate Impact X, we’ve always believed that addressing the climate crisis necessitates a blend of solutions. #Carboncredits are not a silver bullet, nor should they be a substitute for internal #decarbonisation—but they are one part of the solution. While the market isn’t perfect, just because things can be done wrong doesn't negate their potential when done right. What we have today is a powerful tool that can mobilise private sector finance at the speed and scale needed to meet global #NetZero ambitions. Carbon markets offer an immediate and proven mechanism to channel finding into critical #climateaction projects. These projects protect not just our climate, but nature, economies and society. The time to act is now. #ReduceAndInvest Keen to learn more about what good climate #leadership looks like?
