Our Commitment

Durability

We recognize that the impact of CDR projects should extend beyond the immediate term. Durability refers to the long-lasting nature of carbon removal efforts, ensuring that the captured carbon remains sequestered for significant periods, thereby delivering lasting climate benefits. We prioritize CDR projects that demonstrate the ability to maintain carbon reductions over time, offering a durable solution in the face of climate challenges.

Additionality

Additionality is a fundamental principle in carbon markets and CDR projects. It ensures that the carbon reductions achieved through these projects are additional to what would have occurred in the absence of the project. We thoroughly evaluate the additionality of each project we support, ensuring that it goes beyond business-as-usual scenarios and provides genuine and quantifiable carbon removal benefits.

Net Negativity

Achieving net negativity is a crucial objective in carbon removal. It goes beyond simply offsetting emissions; it aims to remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than is released, actively reducing the concentration of greenhouse gases. At Carbon Coda, we prioritize CDR projects that have the potential to achieve net negativity, as they contribute directly to reversing the trend of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.

Verifiability

Verifiability is a cornerstone of credibility and transparency in the carbon removal field. We recognize the importance of independent verification to provide assurance that the claimed carbon reductions are accurate and credible. Through rigorous verification processes, we ensure that CDR projects meet established standards and protocols, and their reported carbon removals are robustly validated. Verifiability ensures the integrity of the projects we support and enables stakeholders to have confidence in the carbon removal outcomes.
