Next July 11, via zoom, FUNPASOS brings together various carbon credit experts They will explain what they consist of, what their legal framework is, how voluntary carbon markets work and how they can contribute to offsetting the activities of the agricultural or forestry sector.
One of the most powerful tools in the fight against climate change is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, mainly carbon dioxide (CO2), generated by various human activities. Apart from the emission reduction measures that the different sectors have to undertake, the absorption of CO2 by the so-called natural carbon sinks and the emissions offset projects They constitute the cornerstone of what are known as carbon markets, a tool to promote and finance the fight against climate change that was adopted in the well-known Kyoto Protocol.
Since then, this market tool has shown its benefits, but also the need to provide transparency and unify the criteria of what should be considered carbon absorption, how to measure it and how to certify it.
Agricultural soils or forests are natural carbon sinks and in recent months there have been news reports about the economic advantages that the adoption of certain practices that can generate what is known as “carbon credits”.
Funpasos (Foundation for Participatory Sustainability) was born to facilitate decision-making in sustainability policy, ensuring the participation of the affected sectors. To participate, it is necessary to be well informed and what better way than to bring together some of the greatest experts at the moment in Spain on the subject.
At this Conference, representatives of the Spanish Office for Climate Change and the Ministry of Ecological Transition, as well as the Junta de Extremadura, will be present. In addition, it will have the presence of representatives of the forestry and agricultural sector, as well as the vision of companies that currently operate in the carbon market.
