As net-zero greenhouse gas emission targets become the new standard, many companies are turning to natural climate solutions (NCS) such as forest protection or reforestation to help reach their goals.
While such actions are critical to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, their use to offset corporate emissions is controversial, and a lack of clear standards for net-zero targets has made it difficult to distinguish legitimate climate action from greenwashing.
Join us on May 18th at 11am ET for a free webinar: The Role of Natural Climate Solutions in Corporate Climate Commitments: A Spotlight on Investor Engagement
. This webinar will launch a new publication by Ceres and IIGCC, “The Role of Natural Climate Solutions in Corporate Climate Commitments: A Brief for Investors.” Developed in collaboration with investors, the brief provides asset owners and managers with guidance for engaging portfolio companies on the use of NCS in their climate commitments.
During this launch event, participants will examine the appropriate use of NCS in corporate climate strategies, explore the investor’s perspective on the risks and opportunities associated with corporate use of NCS and evaluate key points of engagement for investors to guide company NCS usage.
