What is carbon financing?

Carbon financing provides a mechanism to direct capital towards carbon projects, particularly nature-based solutions, which restore fragile landscapes, preserve biodiversity, and revitalise local economies. It’s a proven way to align environmental stewardship with economic development.

The key to carbon financing lies in carbon credits. Businesses and governments buy credits to compensate for emissions they can’t eliminate and reach net-zero and sustainability goals, creating demand and market value.

Making nature flourish

What is a carbon project?

A carbon project is an initiative designed to reduce or avoid carbon emissions, such as through reforestation, renewable energy, or sustainable land management. These projects generate carbon credits, which are tradable assets representing the project’s impact.

Nature-based projects often offer many co-benefits in addition to carbon mitigation, like biodiversity enhancement, habitat restoration, and livelihood improvement. These benefits make carbon credits from these projects more desirable and valuable in the market.

Why carbon financing is needed

Environmental degradation is accelerating, placing stress on ecosystems, water sources, and communities. Air pollution contributes to 8.1 million deaths globally each year, and in 2024 alone, the world lost 6.7 million hectares of tropical primary forests.

Large-scale restoration is urgently needed, but it requires significant funding and support. Nature-based projects is the most scalable method to effectively mitigate emissions while restoring ecosystems. It can provide 37% of the CO₂ mitigation needed to meet the Paris Agreement’s targets.
