Why climate leaders are buying UK nature-based credits, now

The UK voluntary carbon market (VCM) is young but growing fast. Early involvement helps organisations support nature, meet climate goals, and unlock practical benefits. We guide buyers to act thoughtfully and make the most of this opportunity.

1

To lead, not follow

The Climate Change Committee and World Economic Forum both recognise the VCM as essential to achieving net zero. Forward-looking UK businesses are helping build and strengthen the UK market by supporting it early, not waiting for others to act first.

2

To de-risk their
future

Every business depends on healthy ecosystems for supply chains, stability and survival. As climate and nature risks grow, leading organisations are investing in UK nature now to help protect their operations in the years ahead.

3

To access today’s prices

UK carbon credit prices have increased every year since 2020 as the market has matured. Forward-thinking businesses are securing credits now to avoid possible higher costs down the line.

4

To lock in a supply of high-quality credits

The UK VCM is small but high-quality, backed by government standards. Organisations are pre-purchasing credits (known as 'PIUs') from validated projects to secure verified carbon for future climate goals.

5

To stay ahead of regulation

Carbon accountability is becoming a legal expectation, from supply chain reporting to net-zero targets. Forward-looking organisations act now to stay ahead of policy and regulatory changes.

Rottal 2

South of the Cairngorms, Rottal 2 expands woodland along the South Esk to improve water quality, reduce flood risks, and enhance wildlife habitats. A mix of conifers and native broadleaf species will support biodiversity, strengthen the landscape’s resilience and help the UK progress its climate targets.

Lowther 2

Lowther 2 is an ambitious woodland creation project on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Blending productive conifers with native broadleaves, the woodland has been designed not only to sequester carbon but to support local biodiversity, connect habitats, and continue Lowther Estate’s proud legacy of responsible forestry.

Duich Moss

On the windswept Isle of Islay, Scotland, Duich Moss is a richly biodiverse, low-domed bog and internationally protected wetland. This ambitious peatland restoration project will rewet and repair a landscape once threatened by industrial peat extraction, helping to safeguard rare species and lock in thousands of tonnes of carbon.

Milton of Mathers

In northeast Scotland, two coastal valleys were planted with native woodland to boost biodiversity, stabilise riverbanks and sequester carbon. In 2011, this new woodland became the first to be validated (then verified) under the Woodland Carbon Code. Today, it continues to deliver long-term benefits for nature, water and climate.
