REDD+: Reduced Emissions or Distorted Deductions?

Carbon credits issued from avoided deforestation projects (known as REDD+) received a lot of scrutiny last year, yet they also accounted for the second largest volume of credit retirements.
 
This webinar provided an overview of REDD+, addressing the concerns and unpicking the debates surrounding it. Our team of expert analysts shared the latest data and insights on the key integrity and policy topics surrounding this project type.

A spotlight was given to new solutions that the market is coming up with, including jurisdictional approaches and our own integrity assessments, and how they can ensure the effectiveness of these projects so that they can serve the purpose of unlocking capital to protect the world's forests.
