Each credit type represents a verified outcome: the recycling of organic waste (Biowaste) or the reduction of methane emissions. A share of each sale is allocated to the participants behind that work.
of reduced emissions
Represents the verified reduction of methane emissions from composting Biowaste instead of sending it to landfill.
of recycled Biowaste
Represents the mass of Biowaste certified as recycled by composting at an accredited facility.
In the frameworks presented here, the process begins with composting Biowaste. Its records underpin verification and credit issuance.
Composting Biowaste prevents the methane formation associated with decomposition in landfills. That is the process the frameworks presented here verify.
The material's origin, mass, transport and treatment are documented. Each framework defines the criteria that apply to verifying those records.
The Recycling Credit represents the recycled mass. The carbon credit represents the emission reduction. One metric ton of material does not automatically equal one metric ton of CO₂e.
A share of each sale is allocated to participants under the network's rules. Credits are retired automatically once the order is complete.
Each framework defines which evidence substantiates credit issuance.
