Voluntary Carbon Offset Action

Some companies are not liable under the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS) because their indirect emissions, such as from electricity use, are covered by upstream emitters. But they and their customers still want to make a difference to climate change.

Investment in a forest carbon sink that generates AEUs that are not traded and are surrendered by a company not liable under the CPRS produces additional carbon abatement. This is because companies liable under the CPRS are still liable for their emissions and the created AEUs that are surrendered do not act to reduce the Scheme emissions cap.

Forest carbon sinks provide a unique opportunity - the rigour and assurance of a compliance unit, with genuine voluntary additionality.
