Through the project BoCaM (Bologna Carbon Market), the City of Bologna offered reliable carbon credits to private purchasers, verified according to standard ISO 14065 and tied to projects that can be verified over time, in order to increase the environmental sustainability of all actors in society.
The companies could insert the purchase of credits within paths of social business responsibility at the end of a course for company improvement.
The City of Bologna therefore tested the creation of a real market in which public administrations could ‘create’ third-party-certified carbon credits generated by their projects and policies which private companies could purchase to neutralize CO2 emissions.
Our activities in the project included: supporting communication of the project, organization of the final event, and collaboration in developing the printed material aimed at greater diffusion of the project.
