Carbon offsetting and agroecological transition: towards the emergence of a short carbon supply chain
Résumé
The purpose of this article is to present and discuss an ongoing research programme on local carbon offsetting. It is based on a literature review and a few interviews with local voluntary carbon offsetting actors: farmers, communities, farmer services and experts. The paper first outlines how we moved from international to local carbon offsetting. The research methodology is then presented before the first elements of reflection are presented and discussed. In conclusion we propose a new term for designing local carbon offsetting: short carbon supply chain. This new concept suggests to think about carbon offsetting as a local supply chain dedicated to carbon storage and credits.
