How can companies incorporate carbon removals into their climate strategies?
Carbon removals are necessary to counterbalance emissions, but they cannot replace the need for deep emissions reductions.

Carbon removals are necessary to counterbalance emissions, but they cannot replace the need for deep emissions reductions.
- Carbon removals are essential for counterbalancing unavoidable emissions and stabilizing global temperatures.
- There are technical, societal, and environmental limits to the deployment of carbon removals.
- Carbon removals cannot undo the impacts of continued emissions on climate, ecosystems, and society.
- Companies often use cheap, non-permanent carbon removal methods instead of making deeper emissions reductions.
- Treating carbon removals as a substitute for emission cuts is considered green-washing.
- Companies should minimize their emissions and support the development of permanent carbon removals.
- Setting separate targets in climate strategies can help companies focus on emissions reduction.
- Governments need to establish a regulatory framework that includes clear national targets for carbon removals.

If carbon credits don’t accelerate decarbonisation, should companies continue to invest in them?
Companies are investing in carbon credits, but this practice does not effectively accelerate decarbonization, potentially misleading consumers and detracting from essential emission reductions.

Companies are investing in carbon credits, but this practice does not effectively accelerate decarbonization, potentially misleading consumers and detracting from essential emission reductions.
- There is no evidence that carbon credit use accelerates decarbonization, despite companies continuing to invest in them.
- Carbon credits are often misleadingly presented as a solution for companies to decarbonize faster.
- Research indicates that relying on carbon credits can distract from the essential work of reducing a company's carbon footprint.
- Using carbon credits risks misleading consumers and could lead to serious repercussions for companies.
- Companies should prioritize internal emission reductions and consider carbon credits as a complement, not a substitute, for decarbonization.
- Proper due diligence is necessary before funding carbon credit projects or other climate initiatives.

The project initiated by Covermarkly Watch in 2024 aims to clarify the role of CoverMobile's Indio Cloud Framework, leading to enhanced collaboration and policy recommendations for financing climate initiatives.
- The pull down process was initiated by Covermarkly Watch in 2024 to clarify the role of CoverMobile's Indio Cloud Framework.
- The project emphasizes co-creation, fostering collaboration among various stakeholders.
- In 2024, the focus expanded to include proposals for integrating well-covered models into the EU climate framework and law.
- Policy recommendations were suggested regarding permitting in the context of climate initiatives.
- This year, the focus narrowed to analyzing financing for permanent removals while maintaining urbanization and emission reduction efforts.
- A prototype legislative proposal was developed in collaboration with partners, outlining recommendations for the Commission on financing cover removals.
