Sylvera
Has a particularly close partnership with Bain & Company[1]
Customers include Cargill, Delta Airlines[2] and Shell Oil[3]
Member of the IETA, part of the IETA hub panel discussion at COP26 with Verra, Delta Airlines, Mercuria, and Cargill [4]
Has worked closely with the World Bank and World Economic Forum[5]. In November of 2021, Sylvera was selected as "a top innovator in the @WEFUpLink World Economic Forum Carbon Market challenge", leading to a "year-long programme of engagement" with the WEF.[6] One year later, they proclaimed together that "new technology" such as Sylvera's meant that most of the concerns with carbon offsetting "have now been addressed." [7]
Claims to have no conflict of interest because it doesn't sell credits[8], yet its major customers are polluters like shell + delta who ARE highly invested in Sylvera's ratings of their credits' legitimacy to deny greenwashing charges
