Project Tapir
Audit Analysis
Project Tapir is a biochar production and storage project under the Isometric standard with a specific methodology (v1.1) and some positive elements such as tested carbon content and documented feedstock sustainability. However, the available record is critically incomplete: no additionality assessment, no baseline method, no buffer pool, no permanence claim, and no verified emission reduction figures are present in the two documents reviewed. The project cannot be meaningfully assessed for over-crediting or permanence risk with the current evidence.
Red Flags
- No additionality test type or VVB verification found in any available document — a fundamental requirement for any carbon credit project
- No baseline method stated and no baseline reassessment date recorded, making it impossible to assess whether claimed removals are additional
- No buffer pool percentage or permanence claim period specified for a biochar project where carbon storage durability is the core value proposition
- No leakage deduction or justification provided, despite biochar end-use potentially releasing stored carbon
- No verified or claimed emission reduction figures available in any document, preventing any assessment of over-crediting
