The Green Insider — Episode 324
Guest: Lizzie Aldrich (Anew Climate) Forestry removals • RNG • Compliance vs. voluntary markets • Insetting • SBTi draft standard • Carbon Bridge financing
Summary
Lizzie Aldrich of Anew Climate joins us to break down what’s changing in carbon markets—and what “high-integrity” supply looks like on the ground. We dig into why forestry remains central, how RNG projects pencil out, and what the shift toward insetting means for corporate climate plans. Plus: Carbon Bridge, a deferred-payment approach to help companies move faster toward 2030 targets.
In this episode
- How Anew operates across compliance and voluntary carbon markets
- What’s new in forestry (dynamic baselines, better monitoring)
- RNG economics and the role of fuel-market incentives
- Offsets vs. insets: what’s driving the shift and what’s still unclear
- SBTi’s draft net-zero standard: what buyers are watching
- Carbon Bridge: financing that enables action now vs. later
Key takeaways
- Methodology and measurement upgrades are reshaping which credits buyers trust—especially in forestry.
- Incentives differ by market; RNG often hinges on fuel-program value, not just credit sales.
- Creative financing (like deferred payment) can help organizations hit 2030 goals sooner and manage price risk.
