Planet positive opportunities

The big change that’s happened recently is the Environment Bill which, when it becomes law in England, will require 10% biodiversity net gain on all new developments.

Biodiversity net gain is relevant to three main groups: conservation NGOs such as wildlife trusts, delivering the habitat creation and ongoing management; landowners who provide the land for the habitat creation; and developers finding solutions to deliver onsite and offsite biodiversity net gain.

The voluntary carbon marketplace allows purchasers of carbon credits to utilise them in their own net zero journey via new woodland creation schemes and the restoration of degraded peatlands. There’s a huge demand for carbon credits which could become a $50bn industry by 2030 if we’re to hit our targets.
