In 2014, the voluntary market for carbon credits is on the rise, in parallel with the emergence of new regulated markets. More and more enterprises understand its advantages and the whole planet is ready to capitalize on efforts in reducing GHG emissions.

In 2014, the voluntary market for carbon credits is on the rise, in parallel with the emergence of new regulated markets. More and more enterprises understand its advantages and the whole planet is ready to capitalize on efforts in reducing GHG emissions. This new worldwide context favors the emergence of GHG reduction aggregation programs for small grassroots local initiatives. It is in this trend that Will’s Sustainable Community solution takes off.  

By connecting GHG reductions from small emitters and carbon credit buyers/sponsors, Will’s Sustainable Community solution allows the recognition of thousands of conscious acts based on “responsible sponsorship”: All parties are winners; those that realize efforts in reducing GHG emissions and those that sponsor them. 

The solution supports the  ”Positive Economics”, which highlights conscious efforts. The Sustainable Community solution allows the implication of all parties concerned (in particular that of millions of small GHG emitters) and gives access to the monetization of efforts, which is an incentive to reinvest in sustainable development. 

The deployment of Sustainable Community clusters throughout the world will. materialize an intergenerational collaboration permitting the challenge of respecting the carbon budget. The carbon budget of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a CO2 emission threshold not to be exceeded in order to limit global warming to 2°C.
