- Sun 21:32Peru’s carbon market should be self-sustaining instead of relying excessively on foreign aid, without necessarily replacing international funds, officials and institutional partners told Carbon Pulse this week at the Peru Carbon Forum in Lima.
- Fri 23:38An afforestation project in eastern Colombia has completed its first verified issuance after seven years under development, with backers aiming to expand the planted area and bring additional volumes to market.
- Fri 23:20Seaweed-based carbon removal (CDR) could be far less effective than some global models suggest, as iron limitation and competition with phytoplankton reduce both cultivation potential and net ocean carbon uptake, according to a new modelling study.
- Fri 16:30Just three of 23 assessed dairy and coffee companies have published methane reduction targets for 2030, according to a report released this week.
- Fri 15:55The European Union should adopt a hybrid approach when considering the quality of international credits that could count towards its 2040 emission reduction target, using self-set principles to assess against the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM) and other quality benchmarks, two non-profits said this week.
- Fri 14:25Indonesia’s mangrove financing has grown more complex, backed by public budgets, international partnerships, and market mechanisms, but scaling up will depend on making projects transaction ready, a report said.
- Fri 13:34Survivability - Indonesian developer Fairatmos has signed an MoU with conservation group Yayasan Konservasi Pesisir Indonesia to strengthen mangrove restoration and blue carbon development in the country, it announced. The partnership will focus on smart nursery development, joint research and academic publications, and exploring future blue carbon project opportunities. The organisations said the tie-up aims to improve long-term tree survivability and support science-based, scalable coastal restoration efforts.
- Fri 13:11A US oil major this week retired an estimated $250 million in avoided deforestation credits generated as a byproduct of one of the largest oil discoveries in decades, a project that has since sparked a multi-billion dollar legal battle.
- Fri 12:47Poland is projected to have around 45 million tonnes of carbon removal (CDR) potential in 2050 under a high-ambition scenario, led by ecosystem enhancement such as afforestation and peatland restoration, while its abundant biomass resources could support pathways like biochar, according to a climate non-profit.
- Fri 10:41A group of environmental non-profits has appealed a lower EU court ruling on the bloc’s sustainable finance taxonomy, arguing the decision allows climate-damaging forestry and bioenergy activities to be labelled as green.
- Fri 09:13Healthy mangrove ecosystems across India’s Mumbai Metropolitan Region, the country’s largest urban agglomeration, could generate six to ten carbon credits per hectare annually, with high‑integrity blue‑carbon credits fetching $20-50 and biodiversity‑linked credits up to $150, according to a white paper submitted to India’s Prime Minister’s Office.
