How is additionality being addressed by Carbon Capital Fund projects?
The National Forest Foundation is working with Winrock International – an independent expert in forest carbon measurement – to ensure strict quality standards for all projects. Carbon Capital Fund projects will pass two additionality tests: Financial additionality refers to the fact that the project would not have happened without financial support from the Carbon Capital Fund; biological additionality refers to the fact that the project sequesters carbon beyond a “business as usual” baseline. Biological additionality will be measured for the Carbon Capital Fund projects; projects will be registered in the 1605(b) voluntary greenhouse gas registry.
