About this standard

ART is an independent program that credits emission reductions and removals from national and large sub-national REDD+ programs. Its standard is The REDD+ Environmental Excellence Standard (TREES). Its Secretariat is hosted by Winrock International.

How methodology v3 reads projects of this standard

What CarbonMeld reads

  • Integrity shown

    Additionality: the standard itself gives it (TREES 3.0 §3.5, p. 30). The project needs no test of its own. CM-F-ART-TREES-ADDITIONALITY

    Link
  • shown

    Buffer pool: the standard sets rules for it (TREES 3.0 §7.1.1, p. 55). CarbonMeld reads it in the project's documents. CM-F-ART-TREES-BUFFER

    Link

  • Leakage not addressed (forest and land) Q-LEAKAGE-NOT-ADDRESSED

    Forest, wetland, peat, grassland and soil carbon: the documents read do not address leakage. Outside REDD+ and reforestation, the rule applies only where the methodology requires a leakage assessment. At the listing stage, the rule does not apply if the programme's listing form has no section on leakage.

  • Where carbon is stored: the permanence start P-START

    CarbonMeld scores permanence only for projects that store carbon. Forest projects start from CCQI's grade of the programme on criterion 3.2. Direct air capture with storage, biogenic emissions capture with storage, other geological storage and biochar start at the top, 8.0. The EU classes these types as permanent carbon removals. Enhanced weathering also starts at 8.0. It shares a family with direct air capture. This start is our own judgement. Concrete carbonation, ocean alkalinity, buried biomass and long-lived materials start at the neutral 5.0. These types have no class in a public source.

    Forests: CCQI's grade of the programme.

Set by the standard, not assessed by our current method

  • not assessed

    Social safeguards and consent of communities (FPIC): the standard sets rules for it (TREES 3.0 §12.4.3, p. 79). Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-ART-TREES-SAFEGUARDS-FPIC

    Link
  • not assessed

    Our current method does not check how realistic the baseline scenario of the project is. An example is the rate of deforestation that the project compares with. CM-F-ART-TREES-BASELINE-REALISM

Not applicable to this type — never a gap in our current method

The criterion does not apply to this standard. Our current method never counts it as a gap.

The general rules apply as well. Read the general rules.
