– What is carbon stacking?

Question

I’m involved in an eco-farm startup, and one of our consultants is adamant that we should be using carbon stacking as an additional revenue stream.

I more or less understand the concept of getting and selling carbon credits, but for the life of me, I cannot get it through my head what carbon stacking actually IS and means.

Please help me out by explaining like I’m five?

Thank you to everyone for the insight – it was really helpful to see the debate in the comments around the implementation of carbon credit schemes and sales.

I’m not convinced it’s ideal for us to go into, but really appreciate the information!
