The world needs to decarbonize rapidly and fast. Companies like BCP are here to help with residual emissions, while you formulate a long-term emissions reduction plan to cut emissions entirely and reach net-zero emissions. Scientists project that more extreme weather, heatwaves, and fires will become common at an increase of just 1.5 degrees C, which we are already on the path to exceed and witnessing the catastrophic results of now!

Over the last 50 years, more than two out of three deaths caused by extreme weather occurred in the 47 least developed countries— a bloc representing 1 billion people. If we consider that Africa emits less than 1% of global emissions, yet is projected to host the countries hardest hit by climate change, we need to do more, and we need to do it now! The climate change sector is changing fast.

We cannot slow the rate of rising global temperatures without reducing the rate of deforestation. Deforestation currently accounts for 15% of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions globally, a percentage which continues to increase every year. When forests are cut and cleared, the carbon stored in them is released as carbon dioxide emissions. No other strategy enables private-sector businesses to so quickly and easily fight the root causes of carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation. Your company’s purchase of offsets will keep carbon stored in trees, out of the atmosphere. It also falls in line with the Paris Climate Agreement, a global initiative to stop and reduce climate change. Purchasing offsets makes you a part of the solution.

That’s what we are here to help with…

To also address forest and biodiversity loss, REDD+ credits certified by VCS and CCB triple gold are a great way to do this (we can help with this one!)

The end state of net zero is achieved once one’s own emissions have been reduced as much as they possibly can, and a corresponding amount of removal credits are purchased.

One step further – Some companies, like Microsoft, are compensating for historical emissions by investing in an equivalent amount of removal credits.

The time to act is now and we can help you make the change that could help change the World! The goal should be to decarbonize first, but that is not something that can happen overnight, so in the meantime, we are here to help you offset the residual emissions along the way.

Email us at hello@biocarbonpartners.com and we will share the measures that have worked for us that can help you on your journey to meet net-zero emissions, while you join us on our journey as we expand regionally to reach our 30-Cubed Goal.
