Verified Carbon Standard (VCS)

The Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) is a certification system that ensures carbon offset projects are credible and effective in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It provides a framework for measuring and verifying carbon reductions from various activities, such as reforestation or renewable energy projects. By validating these efforts, the VCS helps businesses and individuals buy carbon credits with confidence, knowing they support genuine environmental benefits. Essentially, it promotes transparency and accountability in the carbon market, contributing to global efforts to combat climate change.
