The increasing demand for reducing carbon emissions is expected to drive the growth of the carbon credit market for agriculture, forestry, and land use. Carbon emissions involve the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This demand is encouraging innovation and research in renewable energy, battery storage, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and sustainable agriculture to achieve long-term sustainability. Carbon credits help reduce emissions by incentivizing activities that remove or prevent carbon dioxide emissions, balancing the carbon footprint in agriculture, forestry, and land use. For example, according to Microsoft's 2022 Environmental Sustainability Report, the company acquired 1.44 million metric tons of carbon credits and retired 514,156 metric tons to meet their annual carbon neutrality goal. Consequently, the increasing demand for reducing carbon emissions is driving the growth of the carbon credit market in agriculture, forestry, and land use.
