Ostrom Climate Responds to Budget 2025 and COP30

BURNABY, BC / ACCESS Newswire / December 4, 2025 / Ostrom Climate Solutions Inc. ("Ostrom Climate" or the "Company") (TSX-V:COO)(Frankfurt:9EAA), a leading provider of carbon project development services, net-zero climate solutions, and carbon credit marketing, shares its perspective on key climate measures announced in Budget 2025, alongside growing global alignment on high-integrity carbon markets following COP30. Together, these developments signal continued momentum in strengthening Canada's carbon pricing architecture, scaling credible climate finance, and advancing Indigenous leadership in the transition to a net-zero economy.

Highlights

• Budget 2025 strengthens Canada's long-term carbon pricing system, improving certainty for credit markets and supporting demand for high-integrity offset projects.

• Government alignment with COP30 Shared Principles enhances predictability in global carbon markets.

• Creation of an Indigenous Advisory Council and progress toward a Pan-Canadian OBPS support expanded Indigenous-led climate projects - an area where Ostrom Climate has expertise and partnerships.

• Conclusion of the 2 Billion Trees program increases reliance on private carbon finance.

• New Canadian sustainable finance taxonomy and Sustainable Bond Framework improve capital access for nature-based carbon removals and transition projects.

"Budget 2025 and the momentum coming out of COP30 signal a more aligned and investable future for Canada's carbon markets. The federal focus on integrity, long-term pricing, and Indigenous leadership reinforces the foundations the industry needs to scale and positions Ostrom Climate to continue delivering high-quality climate solutions across the country."

Budget 2025 introduces measures that strengthen Canada's carbon pricing system, support high-integrity climate finance, and advance Indigenous leadership in the transition to a net-zero economy. Further support for nature-based solutions would strengthen Canada's climate strategy, but initiatives across industrial carbon pricing, critical minerals, and sustainable finance advance a clearer, more investable national climate framework.
