Last week at Innovate4Climate was a whirlwind of insights, innovation, and inspiration in the world of carbon markets! 🌍 Here are some key takeaways: 1. Carbon Credit Integrity & Rating Systems: Quality matters! The value of carbon credits is closely tied to their environmental integrity. High ratings can drive up prices and attract premium buyers. Initiatives like IVCM and rating agencies help setting higher standards of quality and transparency. 2. Article 6: Opportunities & Challenges: There’s big potential in implementing carbon market projects under Article 6, especially in regions traditionally underserved during the CDM era. But, it’s not without its hurdles—like regulatory gaps and the need for better infrastructure. By helping build stronger MRV systems, carbon developers can foster transparency and draw more investment to these emerging markets. 🌱 3. Compliance Meets Voluntary Carbon Markets: The lines between compliance and voluntary markets are blurring. With Singapore leading the way (allowing companies to use 5% voluntary credits for compliance) or South Africa, there's a growing demand for high-integrity, digitally verified credits, offering opportunities for project developers to scale up impactful initiatives.—Though challenges, like lack of standardization, remain. 🚪 4. VCM in Clean Cooking & Energy Transition: Clean cookstoves are getting serious attention in the Voluntary Carbon Market. But with market volatility and evolving compliance standards, developers need to stay nimble to meet growing demands while ensuring long-term sustainability. In addition, innovative initiatives, such as the Energy Transition Accelerator are emerging to catalyse finance towards to foster renewable energy development in in developing and emerging countries. This innovative platform will connect sellers and buyers of high-integrity carbon credits to accelerate energy transition.⚡🌱 All in all, it’s an exciting time for carbon project developers. Looking forward to seeing how these discussions shape the future! --- La semana pasada estuvimos en Innovate4Climate, en donde exploramos las últimas tendencias en los mercados de carbono: 1. Créditos de carbono: La calidad es clave. Normas más estrictas, como las del IVCM, mejoran la transparencia y atraen compradores. 🌍 2. Artículo 6: Ofrece oportunidades en regiones desatendidas, aunque persisten desafíos regulatorios. 🌱 3. Mercados voluntarios y cumplimiento: Las fronteras se difuminan, impulsando la demanda de créditos de alta integridad. 🚪 4. Cocinas limpias y transición energética: Estas soluciones reciben atención, y plataformas como el Acelerador de la Transición Energética catalizan la financiación para energías renovables en países en desarrollo. ⚡🌱

🌍 Sustainability is more than just a buzzword—it’s a journey that can sometimes spark skepticism. It's natural to be cautious when we don’t fully understand something. But here's the truth: sustainability isn’t one-size-fits-all. It means something unique to each of us, and with new data and ideas emerging all the time, our understanding is constantly evolving. It’s not about making grand gestures or setting unrealistic goals. It’s about taking meaningful steps that lead to real, impactful change. Let’s come together to learn, collaborate, and leverage sustainability for the benefit of future generations. So, I’m curious—what impactful actions are you implementing in your business? Whether it's reducing waste, switching to renewable energy, or rethinking your supply chain, every action has the power to drive change. Let’s inspire each other and create a lasting impact, together. 🌱 #teameco #ecogozero #Sustainability #GreenEnergy #SustainableBusiness #FutureGenerations #Impact

🚨 La principal tendencia de sostenibilidad empresarial para el 2025, será combatir el Greenwashing 📌 📉 . Los invito a visualizar la interesante infografía presentada por Pradeep Motwani para identificar sus tipologías. De igual manera los invito a leer el informe: The challenge of greenwashing: an international regulatory overview de la firma KPMG Law. 💼 Este informe explora los riesgos y consecuencias que la información sobre sostenibilidad no fundamentada y engañosa puede desencadenar tanto para las empresas como para los gobiernos y organismos públicos. Con la contribución de especialistas jurídicos de KPMG en 25 jurisdicciones de todo el mundo, este informe también tiene como objetivo ilustrar cómo se aborda el greenwashing desde estas jurisdicciones, analizando tanto medidas regulatorias específicas hasta normativa general y casos de greenwashing locales.

"CEO @Terrablu Climate Technologies | Leading the Carbon Neutrality Revolution with SaaS & Web3 | ESG Strategist | 11M+ LinkedIn Impressions | TiE Member | Climate Tech Thought Leader"
Once upon a time, sustainability was a promise—a pact between companies and the planet. But today, in the golden age of greenwashing, promises have turned into illusions. From greenshifting, where blame is shifted to consumers, to green rinsing, where ESG targets are quietly moved further away, these tricks cloak intentions in shades of green. Some spotlight a single eco-friendly act (green lighting) to distract from their flaws, while others hide behind glossy tags (green labeling) or choose silence (greenhushing), hoping no one will notice. At Terrablu, we believe sustainability isn’t a trend—it’s a truth. Together, let’s create a world where green isn’t just a color; it’s a commitment.

Do you want to see a peak of the upcoming event? Let’s talk about the business case for corporate sustainability! Meet our keynote speaker, Noam Tel-vered, a corporate sustainability expert, renewable energy researcher, and former Deloitte ESG consulting practice leader. We’ve asked her a couple of questions so that you can get to know her views prior to the event: 1. Noam, what motivates you to promote sustainability? My motivation to promote sustainability is rooted in my deep belief in our responsibility to future generations on earth. I have witnessed firsthand the devastating impacts of unsustainable practices and understand that adopting sustainable solutions is crucial for our survival and well-being. By fostering innovation and sustainable development, we can create a better, more resilient world that balances economic growth with social and environmental stewardship. 2. What is your vision? How do you imagine our economy five years from now? My vision is a global economy that seamlessly integrates sustainability into every aspect of business and daily life. In five years, I foresee an economy where renewable energy sources dominate, green technologies are commonplace, and sustainable practices are the norm rather than the exception. This transition will not only address climate change but also drive economic growth and create new opportunities, fostering a more equitable and resilient society. 3. Do you have a message you’d like to share with the audience and community? I urge everyone to embrace sustainability not just as a goal but as a way of life. Each small action contributes to a larger impact, and together, we can drive significant change. Let's innovate, collaborate, and push the boundaries of what's possible to create a sustainable future. Remember - the choices we make today will shape the world of tomorrow. Let's make those choices count! Noam Tel-Vered is looking forward to seeing you at the event, and so are we! RSVP link in the first comment below >>>>

EL PODER DE LOS CONSUMIDORES: IMPULSANDO LA SOSTENIBILIDAD A TRAVÉS DE LA DEMANDA … ¿Qué acciones concretas ha implementado mi empresa para integrar prácticas sostenibles en sus operaciones diarias? ¿En qué medida se han medido y evaluado los resultados de estas iniciativas? ¿Qué desafíos ha enfrentado mi empresa al implementar prácticas sostenibles? ¿Cómo se han superado? ¿Existe una cultura de sostenibilidad dentro de la empresa? ¿Cómo se fomenta la participación de los empleados en iniciativas sostenibles? ¿Qué tan alineada está la estrategia de sostenibilidad de mi empresa con los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible de las Naciones Unidas? ¿Cómo colabora mi empresa con otras empresas, organizaciones e instituciones para promover la sostenibilidad? ¿Qué papel juega la innovación en el desarrollo de soluciones sostenibles para los desafíos que enfrenta mi empresa? ¿Cómo se asegura mi empresa de que sus prácticas sostenibles sean justas e inclusivas para todos los stakeholders? La sostenibilidad se define como el desarrollo económico que satisface las necesidades del presente sin comprometer la capacidad de las generaciones futuras para satisfacer las suyas propias. En realidad, la sostenibilidad exige un cambio profundo y transformador que va más allá de los productos ecológicos. Hace poco viví una experiencia reveladora en mi anterior empresa, donde enfrentamos un desafío importante al integrar prácticas verdaderamente sostenibles en nuestras operaciones diarias sin comprometer nuestros objetivos económicos. Esta experiencia me enseñó que la sostenibilidad no es solo una política, sino un cambio completo en la forma en que opera una empresa. Aquí está lo que aprendimos: El cambio debe comenzar desde dentro. Todos los departamentos adoptaron al menos una práctica sostenible. Los compromisos a largo plazo superan las ganancias a corto plazo. Necesitamos desarrollar un plan de sostenibilidad a 5 años centrado en los recursos renovables. La colaboración es clave. Las alianzas con empresas de tecnología verde aceleraron nuestra transición. Este esfuerzo ha remodelado nuestro modelo de negocio y, francamente, la forma en que pensamos en el futuro. Pero surge una gran pregunta: ¿Está preparado el panorama empresarial actual para una verdadera sostenibilidad? #LAGAtechTextileRecYcling #EconomíaCircular #CuidadoDelPlaneta #ImpactoAmbiental #RSC #empresasostenible #futurosostenible #objetivosdesostenibilidad #cambioclimatico #economiacircular #innovacionsostenible #responsabilidadsocial

🌍 𝐈𝐒 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄? Sustainability means is economic development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Actually, sustainability demands a deep, transformational change beyond just eco-friendly products. I recently encountered an eye-opening situation at my previous company, where we faced a significant challenge integrating truly sustainable practices into our daily operations without compromising our economic goals. This experience taught me that sustainability isn't just a policy but a complete shift in how a business operates. Here’s what we learned: 🔄 𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒎𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏.
