What is global warming?

Global warming is a distinct, measurable and long-term increase in the Earth's average temperature.

What is climate change?

Climate change is a change in the distribution of global weather patterns over a long time.

What are greenhouse gases?

Greenhouse gases are gases in the Earth's atmosphere that absorb heat and re-radiate that heat into the atmosphere.

What is a carbon credit?

A carbon credit is an independently certified unit representing greenhouse gas emissions that have been removed from or prevented from entering the atmosphere.

What is carbon trading?

Carbon trading is a market-based approach to managing pollution by providing economic incentives for achieving reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

REDD+ stands for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation. REDD+ projects can generate carbon credits by protecting forests from deforestation and degradation.

AFOLU stands for Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use. AFOLU projects include activities such as afforestation, reforestation, improved forest management and reduced emissions from deforestation and degradation.

What is renewable energy?

Renewable energy comes from naturally replenished resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat.

What is the difference between voluntary and compliance carbon markets?

Compliance carbon markets allow trading of carbon units to meet legal obligations, while voluntary carbon markets allow organisations and individuals to purchase carbon units voluntarily.

What is carbon neutrality?

Carbon neutrality generally refers to reducing greenhouse gas emissions to zero or balancing remaining emissions through measures such as purchasing carbon credits, subject to applicable definitions and requirements.

Nature-Based Carbon Credits

A Trusted Nature-Based Carbon Credit Supplier in the Asia Pacific

Asia Pacific Carbon is a nature-based carbon credit supplier developing and delivering high-integrity carbon credits from forest and land-use projects across the Asia Pacific region. With a focus on Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and the wider Melanesian region, and offices in Australia and Singapore, we source credits from projects we develop and manage directly — giving buyers full traceability from the forest to the retirement of every credit.

As a high quality carbon credits supplier, our priority is integrity. Every credit we supply is drawn from projects designed to be additional, permanent, measurable, and independently verified under leading international standards, so businesses can act on climate change with confidence.

What Are Nature-Based Carbon Credits?

Nature-based carbon credits are generated by projects that protect, restore, or sustainably manage natural ecosystems — forests, wetlands, grasslands, and soils — so that they capture and store carbon or avoid emissions that would otherwise occur. These natural climate solutions are among the most cost-effective and impactful ways to reduce and remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Each credit represents one tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) reduced or removed. As a nature-based carbon credit supplier, Asia Pacific Carbon focuses on projects that deliver real climate benefits alongside genuine co-benefits for biodiversity and local communities.

Why Choose Nature-Based Carbon Credits?

Nature-based projects do more than offset emissions. They deliver a stack of benefits that purely technical solutions cannot:

Preserving Forests and Biodiversity

Protecting standing forests keeps carbon locked away while safeguarding the habitats of threatened species.

Conserving Threatened Habitats

Our projects protect vital ecosystems that are under pressure from logging, land clearing, and development.

Combating Climate Change

By avoiding deforestation and restoring degraded land, nature-based projects reduce and remove greenhouse gas emissions at scale.

Protecting Customs and Traditions

Working on a basis of mutual respect, our projects support the livelihoods, customs, and traditions of the communities who depend on these landscapes.

What Makes Us a High Quality Carbon Credits Supplier

Not all carbon credits are equal. As a high quality carbon credits supplier, Asia Pacific Carbon holds every project to strict integrity principles:

Additional — the emission reductions would not have happened without the project.
Permanent — the reductions and removals are durable over time.
Measurable — impacts are quantified using approved, science-based methodologies.
Independently verified — results are checked by accredited third-party validation and verification bodies.
Traceable — every credit is uniquely tracked, with no double-counting.

Because we develop the projects behind the credits we supply, buyers gain direct visibility of where their credits come from and the impact they create — a level of transparency that sets a genuine nature-based carbon credit supplier apart.

Certified to Leading International Standards

We develop and supply credits in conformance with recognised international standards, including the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) by Verra and complementary co-benefit standards such as the Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) Standards. This ensures the credits we supply are credible, marketable, and able to withstand the growing scrutiny of buyers and regulators.

Our projects span the main nature-based categories, from REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) and Improved Forest Management to Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation. Learn more about our REDD+ and AFOLU project development.
