ClearBlue is thrilled to announce the release of Issue 2 of The Sustainability Leader’s Guide to the Voluntary Carbon Markets.
In our first issue, "Thinking Strategically About Carbon Credits," we presented a comprehensive overview of how the voluntary carbon market (VCM) works, including key drivers for including carbon credits in your sustainability planning and an outline of common use cases.
In Issue 2, we build on this foundation by examining the essential question: How does credit procurement work? We delve into the process of credit buying, providing a detailed understanding and practical tips to navigate this aspect of the VCM effectively.
Designing and managing a procurement strategy can seem overwhelming.
We've outlined four key phases to help guide you in your decision-making: planning, procurement, negotiation, and portfolio optimization and management.
By following these phases, you can ensure the credibility and effectiveness of the offsets you purchase and make a meaningful impact on your carbon footprint.
Why did we develop this guide?
We interviewed top sustainability leaders from diverse enterprises to uncover their most pressing questions about the voluntary carbon market (VCM).
Our findings resulted in the idea for a unique, comprehensive guide: The Sustainability Leader’s Guide to the Voluntary Carbon Market. Each edition tackles a pivotal query from these interviews, offering expert insights that cannot be found anywhere else to help you harness the VCM effectively for your sustainability strategy.
As always, we’re here to answer any questions you may have along the way.
Happy reading and stay tuned for the VCM Fall Reading List!
