Protocol Scorecard

About the Scoring

Our in-depth evaluation analyzed 20* forest carbon credit protocols used in North American voluntary and compliance carbon markets.
We assessed 18 distinct protocol features to produce detailed scores for three types of forest projects: Avoided Conversion, Improved Forest Management, and Reforestation.
