Global Tree C-Sink standard V1.0 official release

Good day ,

We're excited to announce the official launch of the Global Tree C-Sink standard, which will enable us to integrate the immense potential of forests and trees into our climate services.

The Global Tree C-Sink V1.0 represents a milestone in the issuing of high-quality carbon removals from tree planting projects. This standard is the culmination of our successful pilot projects and the valuable stakeholder feedback from the public review phase. With the release of Version 1.0, we provide a tree carbon-crediting framework committed to transparency and verifiable results in carbon removals.

TREEO - GOLD Winner of the German Innovation Awards 2024

Since November 2023, TREEO has been certified according to the Global Tree C-Sink Standard.

Our Global Tree C-Sink Standard is already part of the most successful project in the field of high-quality carbon removal from tree planting projects. Congratulation to TREEO!

What is offered by the standard?

• Global C-Sink Registry: Integrates a transparent and secure platform for registration of carbon sinks and trading.
• Robust C-sinks: Offers carbon sinks based on yearly verifications, avoiding the issuing of non-verifiable future credits.
• On-Site Inspection: Prescribes regular checks that ensure global warming mitigation effects.
• Annual Tree Health Checks: Prioritizes the stability and reliability of the projects.
• Biodiversity and Resilience: Includes criteria for species diversity and native tree conservation that promote ecological benefits.
• Sustainable Forest Management: Prohibits practices that lead to deforestation and forest degradation.
