Public Consultation

The TERO.003 – Forest Carbon Stock Methodology was developed to guide AFOLU sector projects that ensure the maintenance of carbon stocks in forest areas, with a particular focus on legally protected areas such as Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) and Legal Reserves (ARL). This methodology generates the “Carbon Stock” asset and uses Carbon Flux as a reference for greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation.

By certifying the carbon stock at a specific date, the methodology establishes that any new certification requires a new quantification and subsequent submission to the verification process, ensuring data robustness and continuous updates. This rigorous approach provides a solid framework for valuing forest carbon, contributing to the recognition of forests’ importance in climate change mitigation.

Furthermore, the TERO.003 Methodology is ideal for implementing Green CPR (CPR Verde), providing the security and transparency required for partnerships with financial institutions. With strict technical guidelines, it enhances project reliability, reinforcing the commitment to sustainability and environmental integrity in the voluntary carbon market.

The official public consultation phase has ended. We thank everyone who participated and shared valuable insights. Your engagement was essential in refining our methodology and reinforcing our commitment to transparency and trust in Brazil’s carbon market.
