what’s the difference?

Insetting vs. offsetting

Unlike offsetting where a company purchases carbon credits from a project outside of their operations and value chain, insetting allows companies to directly reduce or remove emissions within their value chain. Today, insetting involves using nature-based interventions to promote regenerative agricultural practices.

Insetting across industries

Any company with a supply chain can inset. But to date, most corporate insetting projects are focused on nature-based interventions within agricultural supply chains. Whether you’re looking to reduce emissions from produce or textiles, implementing regenerative agricultural practices can help you decarbonize while making your food, fiber, and fuel supply chains more resilient to climate-related risks.

Agribusiness

Insetting can play an essential role in reducing supply chain emissions associated with agricultural production. For agribusiness companies that produce food, fiber, and fuels, investing in agronomic interventions like agroforestry and water conservation can meaningfully accelerate climate goals.

Food and beverage

Agricultural suppliers represent a major source of Scope 3 emissions for food and beverage companies. By outlining sustainable sourcing requirements for suppliers and paying a premium for those services, food and beverage companies can inset and significantly reduce their Scope 3 emissions.

Consumer packaged goods (CPG)

For companies producing cosmetics, household cleaning supplies, paper products, and more, insetting can help to mitigate deeply ingrained value chain emissions. Interventions could include regenerative agriculture, pollinator habitat restoration, and reforestation. 

Retail

For retailers, value chains can represent up to 98% of total emissions. Financing projects that support organic cotton farmers, alternative fabrics, and sustainable packaging are all examples of insetting that could substantially reduce upstream and downstream emissions.
