Voluntary Carbon Credit Market: Opportunities, Challenges, and the Path Toward a Low-Carbon Economy

The global voluntary carbon credit market size is anticipated to reach USD 24.00 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 34.6% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The voluntary carbon credit market (VCM) refers to the trading of carbon credits on a voluntary basis outside of any legal or regulatory requirements. In this market, companies, individuals, and other entities purchase carbon credits to offset their greenhouse gas emissions and meet self-imposed sustainability goals.

Voluntary Carbon Credit Market Report Highlights

Based on project, renewable energy dominated the market and accounted for a revenue share of 39.08% in 2023. Wind and solar farms generate credits by reducing emissions compared to traditional sources. This creates financial incentives for clean energy development, as companies can earn revenue while tackling climate change

Industrial dominated the component segment with more than 32.5% share in 2023. Industries like manufacturing and heavy production are driving growth in the market. These high-emitting sectors purchase credits from renewable projects to offset their footprint, fueling clean energy development while meeting sustainability goals

Private Companies dominated the end use segment. Private companies are a growing force in the voluntary carbon credit market. They purchase credits generated by emissions-reducing projects, like renewable energy, to offset their own footprint. This trend benefits both sides: companies achieve sustainability goals, and green projects gain vital funding

Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth in the market owing to factors such as supportive policies and growing environmental concerns

The VCM is facilitated by a variety of independent certification programs, such as the Verified Carbon Standard, Gold Standard, and Climate Action Reserve, which establish accounting rules, project eligibility criteria, and verification procedures for carbon credit projects. These projects span a range of activities, including renewable energy, forestry, and carbon capture and storage. However, the VCM has faced criticism over the quality and integrity of some carbon credits, leading to calls for greater standardization and transparency.

Governments are increasingly engaging with the VCM, using it to help meet their national climate goals under the Paris Agreement. For instance, Japan's GX League requires companies to offset any emissions they fail to reduce directly, using the VCM as a complementary mechanism. Policymakers see the VCM as a way to mobilize private capital for climate action, particularly in developing countries where the potential for cost-effective emissions reductions is high. At the same time, there are concerns that the VCM could undermine efforts to achieve deep, economy-wide decarbonization if not properly regulated and integrated with broader climate policy. The voluntary carbon credit market represents a growing and evolving landscape, with the potential to play a significant role in the global transition to a low-carbon economy

Topic: Climate change, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency: Meeting the challenges of cities in the 21st century Conference Title: Saving our Cities: Looming Challenges and Data-Driven Policy-Making Dates: June 17-18, 2022 Venue: Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), Lahore, Pakistan Scientific evidence for the warming of the climate system is unequivocal. We witness climate change through Global temperature rise, ocean warming, decreased snow cover, extreme weather events, ocean acidification, rising sea levels etc. Climate is turning cities into ovens. Cities are heating up; we should prepare ourselves and learn how to keep them cool? Last month, I presented my work on "Climate change, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency: Meeting the challenges of cities in the 21st century" during a conference at LUMS, Lahore, Pakistan. Proving adequate thermal conditions in buildings and built environments is essential for human health and well-being. By using scientific knowledge and methods, we can improve the thermal performance of buildings while using less energy for heating and cooling. #ClimateChange #ClimateMitigation #ClimateAdaptation #ThermalComfort #EnergyEfficiency #Energy #GlobalWarming #Cities #UrbanPlanning #Buildings #Architecture #LUMS #LUMSLahore #Lahore #Punjab #Pakistan #BUITEMS #architectwaqas (at LUMS) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjNBiRatq6m/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How do we ensure the green transition doesn't...

"Unless the socio-economic implications of climate mitigation actions are better understood, there is likely to be pushback to climate action itself, risking the global community’s ability to keep 1.5 degrees in sight." #climatemitigation #sustainability #greenenergy

"Climate Control: Trends and Forecast for the Carbon Capture and Storage Market (2024-2033)"

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is rapidly becoming a pivotal technology in the fight against climate change, offering a promising solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from industrial processes and power generation. By capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) at its source—whether from power plants, factories, or other major emitters—CCS technology prevents this potent greenhouse gas from entering the atmosphere. The captured CO2 is then transported and securely stored underground in geological formations, where it can be contained for centuries. Advances in CCS technology are enhancing its efficiency and scalability, making it a key player in achieving global climate goals. With increasing investments and research, CCS is poised to become an integral part of a comprehensive strategy to mitigate climate change, support sustainable energy transitions, and drive economic growth in green technologies. Embrace the future of climate action with CCS and join the movement toward a cleaner, more sustainable planet.

6 materials designers are using from packaging to fashion

As companies are beginning to shift to more sustainable products, we look at the materials they’re using.

Mycelium Leather

This type of leather is lab-grown, using the roots fungi utilize to grow. 

The material is organic enough to be tanned or dyed, making it look like mainstream leather. 

Mycelium leather is a better alternative to plastic leather, which uses less natural resources and emits almost no carbon emissions. 

Hermés and Adidas are already utilizing this leather to produce sustainable bags and shoes.

Latex

Latex is a natural material that comes from rapidly renewable rubber trees. 

Latex is an excellent alternative to petroleum and animal-based materials used in fashion and furniture. 

Sea stone

A natural binder creates sea stone by grinding the wasted seashells from the seafood industry. 

Sea stone is a more sustainable alternative to cement. 

Algae Bioplastic

Environmentalists have criticized bioplastics because it requires a lot of land use. Thus algae is a better alternative. Algae absorb carbon, and it is abundant and renewable. 

Algae bioplastic is used in sequin dresses, raincoats, skis, food packaging, and filaments for 3D printing. 

Food waste

By repurposing food waste, humanity is making a step forward to a circular economy. 

The most helpful waste is seafood seashells that can act as bioplastic packaging. Coffee grounds are also used to create leather. 

Solar panels are now using produce waste to generate clean energy from ultraviolet light. 

Cork

Cork is sustainable because it is simply stripped from the cork tree without being deforested. 

Cork is recyclable and compostable as well, generating less waste. 

Cork is used in wine, accessories, and most recently, in furniture. 

[tocarbonzero]

What is To Carbon Zero about, anyway?

This is the beginning of an outline for a talk I’m working on, but it’s also a pretty good overview of the topics under the To Carbon Zero umbrella. 

Where does the carbon come from? 

Carbon conservation: use less energy in the first place.

Green energy: use sources that are more carbon friendly.

Sequestration: natural and technological ways to pull carbon out of the air.

Mitigation: dealing with the effects of climate change.
