Bristol Avon Catchment Market
Project Overview
The Bristol Avon Catchment Market is an online marketplace for buying and selling local and verified environmental services, including biodiversity, carbon reduction and natural flood management.
The project is being delivered through a collaboration between Avon Wildlife Trust, Wiltshire Wildlife Trust and EnTrade (the BACM team). It is working with landholders and buyers of credits (such as developers) across the catchment to deliver a pipeline of projects and generate fair prices for environmental services. This will be done through a user-friendly trading platform that operates in ‘Market Rounds’ that aggregate buyers and seller offerings within set timeframes.
