Carbon credits are seen by several organisations as a crucial element towards achieving global net zero emissions by 2050, but despite earning a billion-dollar valuation from global companies, carbon credits have long struggled to inspire confidence. Some environmental groups approach carbon markets with scepticism, claiming that they allow companies to appear as though they are leading on climate action, when in fact they are not. In fact, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) does not allow achieving short-term carbon reduction targets using carbon credits and by 2050 only up to 10% is allowed to be achieved through removal credits. Recently, the European Union also banned advertising of products and services as “carbon neutral” if the neutrality was achieved using carbon credits.
