What are Carbon Offsets
A carbon offsets is a tradable certificate representing the right to emit one ton of carbon dioxide or the equivalent amount of a different greenhouse gas.
There are two types of carbon offsets:
- Voluntary emissions reduction (VER): used in voluntary markets for credits.
- Certified emissions reduction (CER): created through a regulatory framework with the purpose of offsetting a project's emissions.
Singapore does not have a regulated carbon market so only VERs are applicable in the local context.
Carbon offsets fulfill their purpose when they are retired to offset Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions.
- The retirement is made permanent by the accredited registry on behalf of the organisation that is offsetting its emissions.
- Carbon offsets are proof of actions and can be used by any organisation to offset its carbon emissions.
- Carbon offsets are best used to complement an organisation’s sustainability efforts, to offset unavoidable carbon-emitting activities.
