Verra (VCS)

Verra’s Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) is a globally recognized framework that certifies projects reducing or removing greenhouse gases, such as reforestation or renewable energy initiatives. These projects generate carbon credits, which can be bought and sold to offset emissions elsewhere. Verra ensures that credits are credible, additional (beyond what would happen without the project), and verifiable through rigorous standards. This system promotes transparency and environmental integrity in the voluntary carbon market, helping businesses and organizations contribute to climate change mitigation while demonstrating their commitment to sustainability.
