The Business and Biodiversity Offsets Programme

The Business and Biodiversity Offsets Programme (BBOP) is a global initiative that helps companies and organizations manage their environmental impact by creating biodiversity offsets. These offsets aim to compensate for damage to ecosystems caused by development projects, ensuring that any harm is balanced by actions to protect or restore biodiversity elsewhere. BBOP develops standards and best practices for designing effective offsets, promoting responsible conservation that benefits both nature and business. Its goal is to harmonize economic development with the preservation of vital ecosystems, ensuring sustainable practices for future generations.
