Leden

Ons ledenbestand omvat bedrijven uit verschillende sectoren. Zij gebruiken van de vrijwillige carbon market om een impuls te geven aan de vermindering van de ontbossing in de tropen. Onze leden kopen VCS en CCB gecertificeerde carbon credits of duurzame grondstoffen van REDD-projecten van over de gehele wereld. De deelnemende bedrijven passen de aankoop van credits in in hun bredere duurzaamheid strategieën en dragen op die manier bij aan de strijd tegen klimaatverandering en het verlies van biodiversiteit. Sinds de start van het REDD+ Business Initiative hebben de deelnemende bedrijven credits ingekocht ter waarde van 16,2 miljoen ton CO2 en deze grotendeels aan de markt onttrokken. Naast de bedrijven die carbon credits kopen, zijn ook enkele bedrijven die duurzame producten uit REDD+ projecten kopen bij RBI aangesloten.

De volgende organisaties zijn lid van RBI. Het betreft zowel bedrijven en strategische partners:

Michel Schuurman, Director Economy and Politics

'Business has a crucial role to play in safeguarding a liveable planet for all beings and all generations. As a business network we are therefore proud to host the RBI project. By utilizing the CO2 offsets for the unavoidable emissions in such a way that it protects tropical forests with a rich biodiversity, it acts as a two-edged sword.'
