How advanced fire monitoring helps reduce threats and drive higher carbon ratings
Learn how proactive fire resilience measures can translate into higher project ratings, stronger market positioning, and greater long-term value.
Protect your carbon credits from wildfire risks
This free whitepaper outlines how forward-thinking carbon developers are using satellite technology and predictive tools to protect credits, maintain certification, and secure investor trust.
Why this matters
Wildfires pose a major threat to nature-based carbon projects. As fires intensify, they are not only destroying ecosystems but also weakening the financial backbone of carbon markets.
Global carbon emissions
17% of global carbon emissions in 2024 came from wildfires — over 7 billion tonnes of CO₂, threatening the credibility of carbon markets.
High risk for peatlands
Peatlands store up to 20x more carbon than forests, but are highly fire-prone. Peat fires can burn underground for months, reversing years of sequestration.
A single fire = big impact
One wildfire can invalidate credits, cause rating downgrades, and shake investor confidence, especially without early mitigation.
Resilience drives ratings
BeZero and Sylvera now evaluate wildfire mitigation. Projects lacking resilience are penalized, while those with integrated fire strategies are rewarded with better ratings and buyer trust.
