Justin Cochrane applied his knowledge and experience from the investment banking world, specifically in royalties and streaming, to create a vehicle for investors to target focus to creating a net-zero carbon future. The appetite of investors is large and in two years Carbon Streaming Corp has grown from around two-hundred thousand dollars to one-hundred-thirty million in next assets, and more.
Investors are enthusiastic to advance and accelerate carbon-reduction and climate-advancement projects around the world. Justin’s team creates a cycle of benefit - invests capital in the projects, markets the greenhouse gas (GHG) credits and return the proceeds of the credits to further grow the project investments. Achieving climate abatement in the world will take decades but the GHG credits achieve a middle ground on that road.
With a goal to become the largest player in the voluntary carbon market, Carbon Streaming also has strict criteria to be met for investments to qualify for funding and assistance. The projects under consideration are numerous but already Carbon Streaming’s investments are fascinating:
Protecting 6,500 hectares of Indonesian peat swamp from being converted to palm oil, creating a sanctuary for orangutans, providing community assistance, advancing women’s business, and making available clean power and water.A blue carbon credit project: protecting 22,000 hectares of Mexican mangroves (which absorb up to 10 times the carbon of a terrestrial forest, and hold 75% of that carbon under water) , surrounded by 137,000 hectares of marine ecosystem from shrimp farming and aqua culture.Tune in to hear about:
