Carbon credits may garner enhanced credibility through better impact measurements

Carbon credits are used by companies as a way to offset their greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) by investing in projects that reduce or sequester carbon. These carbon offsets are used in many industries where the ecological transition requires significant financing (e.g. forestry, agriculture, transport, construction, waste management). However, inaccurate baseline scenarios for projects and their impacts can cast doubt on the credibility of these offsets.
