BusinessGreen to host new webinar on navigating the voluntary carbon market in 2024

Free interactive webinar hosted in association with carbon market platform Patch

BusinessGreen will this month host its first webinar of 2024, bringing together leading experts to explore the trends that will shape the voluntary carbon market over the next 12 months and beyond.

The hour-long interactive webinar - titled Prizes and Pitfalls: Navigating the voluntary carbon market in 2024 - will take place from 11:30 on 29 January. 

Hosted in association with carbon market infrastructure provider Patch, the session will offer an invaluable insight into the trends and challenges that will shape the course of the voluntary carbon market in the months ahead and offer guidance on how organisations can navigate these trends in support of their climate goals.

Confirmed speakers include Jim Mann, founder and CEO at carbon removal developer UNDO; Jeremiah Lim, director for carbon and sustainable fuels infrastructure in Barclays' Sustainable and Impact Investment Banking arm; and Georgia Berry, UK and European policy lead at Patch.

The panel of experts will explore the impact of emerging standards and rules on the carbon market, the pros and cons of emerging carbon removal approaches, and how businesses can ensure the projects they invest in have high-integrity and complement wider corporate decarbonisation efforts.

The webinar will be chaired by BusinessGreen editor-in-chief, James Murray, who said: "The voluntary carbon market has had a turbulent few years, but for many businesses it remains an important part of their net zero strategies and a valuable mechanism for accelerating the flow of finance into emissions reduction and carbon removal projects. Our latest exclusive webinar will provide an invaluable opportunity for organisations to better understand the emerging standards, buying trends, and challenges that are likely to shape this crucial market over the coming years."

Patch's Georgia Berry said: "Patch believes that greater education and transparency around the quickly-evolving carbon market will lead to better outcomes all around. We're excited to join BusinessGreen in helping businesses understand what to expect in 2024 and sharing best practices for engaging with the carbon market to drive positive benefits for both business and the climate."

This interactive webinar is free to attend and is part of a series of events from BusinessGreen planned for 2024. You can register for the webinar here.
