The 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals.
Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the United Nations and their alignment with carbon credits.
The UN established the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015.
SDGs provide a global framework for peace and prosperity. Carbon credits are key to advancing these goals by addressing climate change through emission reductions. They not only drive climate action (SDG 13) by mitigating global warming, but also generate revenue that supports clean energy (SDG 7), sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11), and biodiversity conservation (SDG 15). At CRB, we use AI to select projects that achieve the strongest alignment with multiple SDGs.
