The final report of the Dialogue first discusses how the voluntary use of carbon credits can promote climate action. It outlines the Nordic perspectives on best practice for the voluntary use of carbon credits including a Nordic Code of Best Practice (“Code”). The Code provides a Nordic perspective on the current best practice for the voluntary use of carbon credits, synthesising ambitious requirements and recommendations put forward by relevant initiatives as well as inputs from Nordic stakeholders. The report derives some recommendations for further Nordic cooperation on promoting best practice for the voluntary use of carbon credits.
This report was published by the Nordic Council of Ministers and prepared under the Nordic Dialogue on Voluntary Compensation.

A new Nordic report “Voluntary compensation of greenhouse gas emissions – International guidance and initiatives” explores the use of voluntary compensation by non-state actors in the context of their broader efforts towards and beyond carbon neutrality. These efforts could help to raise ambition which is urgently needed to achieve the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees. Ambition-raising will be a key theme of the COP26 climate conference, which takes place in Glasgow from 31 October to 12 November.
