A Message from Global Carbon Standard

As we reflect on 2024, we are proud to share the significant strides our organization has made in the fight against climate change. This year, we have expanded our Global Carbon Standard methodology to include composting programs, a crucial step in our mission to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainable practices.

Our certification program has continued to grow, welcoming new initiatives that are eager to adopt our detailed methodology and processes. This expansion underscores our commitment to providing robust and reliable standards for carbon reduction.

In our pursuit of excellence, we have sought recognition and certification from esteemed organizations such as the Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM) and the International Carbon Reduction and Offset Alliance (ICROA). These efforts are a testament to our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of integrity and effectiveness in our work.

We have also focused on enhancing our offerings and improving our processes to continue raising the bar on carbon mitigation and offset viability. By doing so, we aim to empower more initiatives to create a positive impact on our planet.

As we look forward to 2025, we extend our heartfelt wishes for a happy holiday season and a successful new year. Together, we can continue to fight climate change and leave the world a little better off than we found it.

Thank you for your unwavering support and commitment to our cause.

Warm regards and Happy Holidays,

Paul Salwey
