Untangling standards, sourcing and due diligence: A conversation on crafting enduring carbon credit strategies amidst an evolving landscape

​Across the world government bodies, standard setters and private sector actors are coming together around ways for companies to engage with carbon credits as a way to accelerate global climate impact. And while there’s consensus around the climate imperative, the ways in which companies participate in the voluntary carbon market is not a one size fits all.

​At New York Climate Week, Patch will bring together corporate leaders and learners for a constructive conversation on how to approach the latest voluntary guidelines, industry best-practices, and government requirements. Seasoned experts will share how they’re translating policy drafts and iterative standards into clear strategies. Under Chatham House Rules, participants in this small group discussion will leave with new insights into how to build sourcing criteria and leverage financing mechanisms to yield the highest value for both corporates and the climate.

​Topics we’ll cover include:

• ​Integrating voluntary standards into sourcing strategies

• ​Leveraging best in the field practices for technology-specific due diligence

• ​Developing robust carbon credit criteria that suits your strategy

• ​Maximizing annual workflows and timelines
