@mongabay Couldn't agree more - we need to move towards community-led emission reduction projects to ensure the real guardians of the forest receive the bulk of revenue generated through the sale of carbon credits, not multi-national organisations.

@kmac Couldn't agree more - there is too much variation in the underlying project quality. The only way create a commodity-based market would be to standardise projects / standards which would only disadvantage high-quality projects that deliver beyond just carbon sequestration.

The nature of these 'assets' just don't appear to suit commodity markets. There's enough challenges with verification, additionality, even human rights - without introducing all kinds of intermediation, arbitrage, and who knows what artefacts.

Some incredible revelations here. One of the most-hyped things in green finance right now is a taskforce wanting to make a global commodities market out of carbon offsets. Yet offsets are notoriously hard to verify & sensitive. It's not going well... bloomberg.com/news/features/…

We've heard news that we've been selected as 1 of 10 ventures to participate in the Impact Hero Lab, a 6 month accelerator where we'll be working with individuals from SAP, Microsoft, Audi and Volkswagen to help implemented BEF's vision. impact-hero.eu/lab/

I'm really impressed by your business man, and I think it's got massive potential. Just look at the size of things like carbon taxes and companies' PR challenges (aviation, energy etc) with undocumented emissions. There's tons of money, a total mess, and @BEFLimited solves it.

Recently BEF was selected as one of 30 ventures to participate in the European Impact Heroes Day. Yesterday we worked with individuals from Volkswagen, SAP, and Audi to create a strategy to raise awareness of BEF and our upcoming pilots. Time to deliver! impact-hero.eu
