While businesses have the potential to be powerful catalysts for climate action, they've often been constrained by a narrow focus on simple #sustainability initiatives. To truly tackle climate change, corporations must shift gears, embracing a more activist role. This involves mobilizing their customers, reimagining partnerships with NGOs to drive systemic change, influencing peers and industry groups, and advocating for climate-friendly policies. By leveraging their economic might and public influence, businesses can play a decisive role in accelerating the transition to a #SustainableFuture. #SustainableBusiness

The ALLCOT team is proud to present the Carbon Market 4 Global Equity (CM4GE) initiative, which aims to leverage carbon markets for sustainable and equitable growth, particularly focusing on benefits for the Global South. Acknowledging the urgency of climate change, CM4GE serves as a strategy that aligns with the Paris Agreement, ensuring carbon markets are robust, effective, and founded on fairness. It's a call to action for collaboration and innovation, thanking all contributors for their support. As we introduce CM4GE 2024, it represents the dawn of a new chapter where technology and ethics drive climate action, moving towards real sustainability and equity. In light of the recent Science Based Targets publication on the use of carbon credits, it's crucial to emphasize that the conversation shouldn't be binary — whether to use carbon credits or not — but instead, how to enhance their effectiveness and integrity. With a necessity to reduce 280 billion tons of CO2 equivalent by 2030, the carbon market's role is undeniably critical. The CM4GE initiative encapsulates this approach, ensuring that as we navigate towards carbon neutrality, we also deliver tangible sustainable development and support the notion of equity through fairness in carbon markets. https://lnkd.in/dWHiXdHp #CM4GE #fairness #carbonmarkets #carbonfinance #impactfinance

While it’s positive to see more organizations joining (45% of the Fortune 500 have net-zero claims*), it raises the question: What’s causing their caution? Is it uncertainty around carbon pricing, credit quality, or market complexity? Unlocking this hesitancy is key to scaling climate action.
