Basics of Carbon Credits and Projects
Curious about carbon projects? This webinar is your shortcut to understanding the carbon market.
The carbon market is a powerful thing. It puts a financial value on climate action, turning impact into opportunity. But let’s be honest, it can get a little complex.
Can refurbishing electronics earn you carbon credits? What if you switch from corn to hemp, does that count? What about producing biobased materials, generating biogas, or protecting forests?
In this webinar, we’ll break down how carbon credits actually work, using real-world examples to make it tangible. We’ll guide you through the key steps of a carbon project—from the first idea to certification—and demystify the methodologies that define and measure impact.
What you'll learn:
- How carbon markets work
- What makes a carbon project credible
- The role of methodologies
- What certification involves
- Real-world examples
