Tero Carbon, an environmental asset certifier, is proud to announce the formal support of the National Institute for Amazonian Research (INPA). This support reinforces our commitment to the certification of carbon credits and stocks, promoting sustainability and economic development in the Amazon region
INPA, with over 70 years of history in generating and disseminating knowledge and technologies for the sustainable development of the Amazon, recognizes the importance of Tero Carbon as an innovative initiative. In a letter signed by Director Henrique dos Santos Pereira, INPA highlights the relevance of our platform, which uses cutting-edge technologies such as blockchain to ensure the traceability of assets from minting to retirement. This traceability is essential for Tero Carbon’s role not only as a certifier but also as a registrar of the environmental assets it verifies, ensuring transparency and market confidence.
INPA’s direct participation through its research laboratories, especially the Forest Management Laboratory (LMF), in developing Brazilian methodologies in the Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector, provides Tero Carbon with significant institutional support. This support is crucial not only nationally but also internationally, given the global recognition and respect INPA holds as a leading institution.
Tero Carbon’s mission is to promote the participation of small-scale projects in the global market using locally developed methodologies. Our vision is to lead the certification of Brazilian environmental assets with integrity and quality, contributing to global sustainability. The values that guide us – Honesty, Transparency, Respect, and Commitment – are the foundation of our operations and relationships with partners and clients.
INPA’s letter of support, which will be available for full reading, emphasizes that Tero Carbon, supported by various regional institutions, represents a promising prospect for stimulating and consolidating the carbon market in the Amazon. This support is another demonstration of INPA’s commitment to the benefit of the Amazon, its economy, and its people.

About Tero Carbon
Tero Carbon is a digital certifier of environmental assets, stocks and carbon credits. We work with exclusive methodologies, developed by partner institutions, which were submitted and approved in a Public Consultation instrument.
We have developed an independent process for certifying carbon projects and verifying environmental assets, supported by a technological platform developed to accelerate these processes. We issue certificates for the generation, transfer and retirement of carbon credits using Blockchain technology to ensure security and traceability of assets and the OpenSea Platform for transparency.
We share and support best market practices to deliver an asset with integrity, supported by eligibility criteria and socio-environmental safeguards, in accordance with best market practices, such as those established by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the United Nations (UN) and the Core Carbon Principles.
