Rethinking Carbon Credits: The Role of Reduction vs. Removal in Achieving Net Zero

This panel discussion will delve into the ongoing debate surrounding the importance of both reduction and removal carbon credits in the journey towards a net zero future. While removal credits, such as tree planting and carbon capture technologies, have garnered significant attention for their ability to physically remove carbon from the atmosphere, reduction credits are often overlooked and undervalued.

The panel was led by:
• Ben Caldecott, Founding Director, Oxford Sustainable Finance Group at the University of Oxford Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment
• Christoph Gebald, CEO, Climeworks
• Tommy Ricketts, CEO and Co-founder, BeZero Carbon
• Will McGoldrick, Regional Managing Director of Asia Pacific, The Nature Conservancy

The panel discussion was moderated by Hoon Ling Min, Investment Director, GenZero.
