Carbon Offset
Platform
Increase sales in decarbonization era
Improving corporate brand value
Viewing carbon-offset as a source of competitiveness, rather than a cost, and proactively pursuing initiatives will lead to company differentiation and increased value.
The effects of climate change caused by global warming are becoming apparent, including rising temperatures, heavy rains, an increase in typhoons, and a decline in the quality of agricultural products.
Fourth climate change response:
Towards an era where environmental value is recognized
Decarbonization 4.0; Re-creating competitiveness over environmental value through climate change response. The focus has been on functional value and emotional value until now, however, the third added value, "environmental value", has become a new differentiation strategy.
In recent years, all industries and companies have been required to decarbonize, but there are some fields where it is currently technically difficult to reduce emissions.
Even companies that find it difficult to reduce emissions in the short term can demonstrate their contribution to decarbonization by using carbon offsets through carbon credits.
The business environment and consumer awareness have begun to change significantly in the wake of the Paris Agreement.
The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has stated that the use of offsets should be promoted in order to encourage behavioral changes in individuals and regions towards low carbonization.
Many companies have announced decarbonization declarations, and consumer interest in climate change is increasing.
カーボンオフセットの意義
責任ある事業活動のために
ビジネスにおける事業活動は、企業の存続と成長において欠かせない存在です。事業活動を縮小することなく脱炭素化を進めることは容易ではありませんが、環境への影響に対して無関心でいることはできません。カーボンオフセットは、「責任ある事業活動」を実現するための重要な第一歩です。私たちの考え方は明確です：
-
まず可能な限りCO2排出を削減する
-
それでも避けられない排出分を補う
これは環境問題から目を背けるのではなく、事業活動と環境保護の両立を目指す責任ある選択です。
持続可能な未来への第一歩
カーボンオフセットは、単なる「罪滅ぼし」ではありません。それは組織の持続可能性への旅の始まりです：
-
排出量の見える化：自社活動のCO2排出を数値化し、現状を把握
-
意識改革のきっかけ：環境負荷を認識することで、組織全体の環境意識を高める
-
継続的な改善の推進：オフセットから始まり、より積極的な削減策や環境配慮型の実践へと発展
カーボンオフセットがもたらす真の価値
単なる排出量の相殺にとどまらない、真に価値あるカーボンオフセットを提供します：
-
信頼性の高いクレジット：国際基準に適合した検証済みプロジェクトのみを活用
-
社会課題の解決に貢献：地域コミュニティのSDGs促進につながるプロジェクトを厳選
-
環境と社会の両面に配慮：生物多様性保全や雇用創出など、多角的な価値を生み出すプロジェクト
サステナブルブランドとしての信頼構築
環境への取り組みは、従来の慈善活動的なCSRとは一線を画します：
-
気候変動課題に真摯に向き合う企業姿勢を、一貫して発信することで、責任ある企業としての姿勢を示すと同時に、組織の持続可能な未来への第一歩となる
-
CSRを超えた取り組みへ：環境配慮を事業戦略の中核に位置づけることで、長期的な競争優位性を構築
-
社内文化の醸成：持続可能性への取り組みは、社員のモチベーション向上や優秀な人材の獲得・定着にも寄与
Benefits
More efficient decarbonization
(Cost reduction)
In areas where decarbonization technology has not been established, forcing emissions reductions may have negative effects such as heavy costs and supply instability. Therefore, the use of carbon credits will lead to more efficient decarbonization and cost reductions.
Corporate environmental management
Contribute to acquiring corporate contracts for companies that are proactive about environmental considerations and SDGs initiatives, attracting users who are highly conscious of environmental considerations, and evaluating SDGs initiatives.
Creation of new business
Increase on added value of products and services which leads to a creation of new business models and businesses.
Regional revitalization
By using local carbon credits, it is possible to obtain funds for new activities such as increasing the added value of local products and conserving the local environment, and dual economic effects are expected as a result.
Case Studies
Kongo Chemical Co., Ltd.
As a result of calculating the CO2 emitted by Kongo Chemical's manufacturing employees in their private cars while commuting, it was confirmed that they emitted 9.6 tons of CO2. CO2 emitted during the calculation period is offset using local carbon credits. Furthermore, this project aims to improve the traceability of CO2 by locally producing and consuming carbon credits using forest-derived credits created within Toyama Prefecture.
What is carbon offset?
-
Carbon offset is an initiative that offsets the greenhouse gas emissions that are unavoidable in daily life and business operations by supporting emission reduction and absorption projects based on the amount of emissions. In recent years, carbon offset efforts have been expanding, and by understanding greenhouse gas emissions and purchasing credits when it is difficult to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the reduction and absorption activities can be carried out elsewhere instead.
-
The voluntary carbon market is expected to grow from about $2 billion in 2022 to about $100 billion in 2030 and $250 billion by 2050, according to Morgan Stanley.
-
TSVCM recommends that the current credit market needs to be expanded by more than 15 times in order to achieve the 1.5 degree target of the Paris Agreement.(TSVCM is an abbreviation for Taskforce on Scaling Voluntary Carbon Markets, an organization related to voluntary carbon markets.The main purpose is to improve the quality and evaluation framework of carbon credits, and improve the transparency and liquidity of transactions. )
