Quality offsets? A commentary on the voluntary carbon markets
ABSTRACT From Big Tech to Oil Majors, companies are increasingly resorting to the voluntary purchase of carbon credits to offset their greenhouse gas emissions and make claims about their carbon neutrality. Yet, the credibility of offsetting as a solution to climate change remains contested. From the outset, that is, since the mid-2000s, the voluntary carbon markets have been criticised, as we discuss in this commentary, which stems from our long-standing interest in the social study of carbon markets. Drawing on interviews conducted with offset suppliers and buyers, we examine some of the ways in which the issue of quality (or the lack of) has come to be a central concern in the voluntary offsetting markets.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
