BeZero Carbon

We’re thrilled to see that BeZero’s research has been cited in the latest OECD - OCDE report. Here are three key takeaways: 📈 Market growth: the report anticipates growth in both voluntary and compliance carbon markets, with increased demand for carbon credits. This growth can be further supported by clear governmental guidelines on the use of carbon credits. 🔠 Role of ratings agencies: the report highlights the importance of ratings agencies in reducing information asymmetries. Governments can leverage these insights to better understand project integrity. It also reiterates that ratings complement industry initiatives like The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM). 🔎 BeZero’s expertise: our research reports have been highlighted for their expertise. Notably, our research on discounting frameworks and on the correlation of price and ratings were cited. We’re delighted to contribute to this significant research and see the recognition of ratings agencies in supporting the integrity of carbon markets.

What is the difference between SDG claims and co-benefits? 🤔 When we talk about positive 'beyond carbon' impacts, we often use terms such as ‘co-benefits’ and ‘SDG claims’, although they don't exactly mean the same thing. 🌱 Co-benefits typically describe positive beyond carbon impacts under themes like biodiversity, community, and economic impacts. 🔢 SDG claims categorise these positive impacts under specific SDGs While SDGs are not the only way to convey these impacts, they have gained popularity due to their global recognition. They’ve become a common language for project developers and standards bodies to communicate these benefits to buyers and other market participants. Read our latest insight where we bring clarity to buyers by addressing frequently asked questions on 'beyond carbon' impacts: https://hubs.li/Q02GZg4z0 #BeyondCarbon #SDGs #CoBenefits #ClimateAction #CarbonCredits

Last month, we hosted our biggest event to date at the Camley Street Natural Park to celebrate the launch of our latest thought piece, setting out the immense impact of a $100bn market on our planet and people. https://hubs.li/Q02F_fsP0 Building a $100bn market requires collaboration across the carbon value chain, and it's a true pleasure to have had so many of you join us during #LCAW, exchanging ideas and creating solutions to deliver genuine climate action. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Is your company part of the 70% who don't report climate information to avoid scrutiny? A recent survey by South Pole revealed a disconnect around climate communications, with 70% of companies admitting to 'greenhushing' despite viewing communications as key to commercial success. In an era where transparency is paramount, it’s time to walk the talk. Sustainability leaders making use of carbon ratings can confidently communicate the quality of their retired credits by: ☑ Evidencing their claims based on a deep assessment of carbon efficacy, including additionality, carbon accounting and permanence. 🛡 Defending their claims by highlighting the scientific, carbon, and markets expertise that goes into third-party ratings. 📊 Qualifying their claims as a likelihood rather than a guarantee. 🔠 Mitigating reputational risk by demonstrating the role of independent ratings in their due diligence. 🌐 Avoiding claims around carbon neutrality which are often treated with scepticism. Learn how using ratings alongside frameworks such as the VCMI's Claims Code of Practice and the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment - University of Oxford's Offsetting Principles can help you communicate your impact with confidence. #CarbonCreditExplainer #ClimateAction #ClimateActionToday #CarbonCredits #CarbonRatings

🗣️ Last week, our Chief Ratings Officer, Teresa Hartmann, had the pleasure of presenting BeZero's ratings at the Google Cloud Sustainability Innovation Forum. She shared how carbon credits can help companies meet their decarbonisation targets and deliver credible climate action, and how ratings play an integral part in building credible carbon portfolios with defensible environmental claims. 🌎 It was an honour to present alongside such inspiring climate tech companies and entrepreneurs.
