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.
