'return of the king'

yeah man I'm sure Aragorn would've absolutely loved financialising the destruction of the Earth system
Return of the #King! #CarbonOffsets are back in the game. 🌎 Science Based Targets initiative has decided to extend its scope of #marketbased decarbonization by allowing reporting companies to retire carbon credits. In fact, excluding carbon credits by #SBTi has always been considered as an #unfounded rule whereas another environmental #attributes such as #IRECs have already been allowed to be redeemed. 🌎 This development is expected to further boost the #VCM whose growth previously projected to increase by 25 to 125 times as per different recognized authorities. —— #Kral’ın dönüşü! #KarbonKredileri oyuna geri döndü… 🌎 Science Based Targets initiative, #piyasatemelli karbonsuzlaşma kapsamını raporlama yapan şirketlerin karbon kredilerini karbon kredilerinin itfasına da izin vererek genişletme kararı aldı. 🌎 Aslında, bir başka çevresel emtia olan #IREC’lerin kullanılmasına izin verilen bir şema olan #SBTi kapsamında karbon kredilerinin itfasına izin verilmemesi hep temelsiz
