Glanris

Audit Analysis

Glanris is a Puro.earth biochar removal project in the United States with verified additionality and a 100-year permanence claim, but the verification report surfaced three material findings (including an initial H/Corg ratio breach and a bulk-density calculation error) and two corrective actions. The absence of a stated buffer pool, leakage treatment, and baseline methodology for a long-lived removal credit leaves meaningful gaps in the integrity and claim-safety picture.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠100-year permanence claim with no buffer pool percentage stated in any available document, leaving reversal risk unmitigated
• ⚠No leakage deduction or leakage justification found in the extracted record for a biochar project where displaced soil carbon or feedstock substitution effects are plausible
• ⚠Three material findings in the verification report, including an initial H/Corg ratio of 0.70 exceeding the <0.7 threshold (corrected to 0.34 in a follow-up lab report) and a bulk-density calculation error that under-quantified one CORC
• ⚠Baseline method and baseline reassessment date are not stated in any available document
