Demonstrating Additionality Primer
Demonstrating Additionality Primer
This guidance was produced as part of an Advancing and Applying Knowledge grant on Voluntary Carbon Markets carried out by UNEP-WCMC, Fauna & Flora and the RSPB. Carbon finance projects are required to be additional, meaning that the carbon emissions avoided or removed would not have occurred without the project taking place. However, requirements around additionality may vary by type of project, methodology and standard. This guidance aims to help landscape restoration projects navigate additionality requirements and produce high integrity credits which attract high quality buyers.
