Opna is proud to join leading companies brought together by ACR at Winrock International in signing this open letter on the importance of carbon markets in accelerating climate action! 🌍 Here are just a few of the reasons why verified carbon credits must be part of every company's sustainability strategy: ⏩ Companies buying carbon credits are 1.8 times more likely to be decarbonising year-over-year. ⏩ Only 18% of committed companies are on track to meet their Paris-aligned targets. ⏩ Carbon markets have a critical role to play alongside supply emissions reductions. ⏩ Carbon credits can help companies decarbonise faster, with greater efficiency that increases ambition. At Opna, we’re committed to sourcing high-quality carbon removal credits that deliver real impact for ecosystems and communities. 🌱   Read the open letter here: https://lnkd.in/e5cQkyY4 #ClimateAction #CarbonMarkets #NetZero #CarbonRemoval

Engaging with companies to protect the climate and biodiversity If the world is to achieve its net-zero ambitions by 2050, it is not enough to invest in companies that already boast low greenhouse gas emissions. As investors, we also aim to challenge companies – including high emitters – in their efforts to lower their emissions. Engaging with the companies in which we invest is core to this mission, and it is why the topics of climate and biodiversity are often foremost in our engagements. Matt Christensen, Global Head of Sustainable & Impact Investing at AllianzGI: "As investors, we believe it is critical to have a constructive discussion with investee firms on issues such as their impact on climate change. Engagement is an important element in our ambition to decarbonise portfolios and contribute to our net-zero targets, which reflect those set by Allianz Group."
