Integrity Council approves first three biochar carbon credit methodologies for CCP label
"The approvals announced today underscore the credibility of this emerging climate solution."
The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market has approved the first three biochar methodologies to sell carbon credits under the Core Carbon Principles (CCP) label of integrity.
Biochar, a carbon-rich material produced from biomass such as agricultural residues or wood through pyrolysis, is an increasingly popular carbon credit choice, often marketed as permanent carbon dioxide removal. Microsoft, for example, agreed to purchase 1.24 million tonnes of biochar carbon removal credits certified by Puro.earth last May.
