Analysis

This CAR-registered forestry project in the State of Mexico has VVB-confirmed additionality and a 30-year crediting period, but is undermined by multiple material findings (including a 2021 forest fire affecting 206.6 ha), three outstanding corrective actions, a project-specific baseline with no stated reassessment date, and contradictory ERR and permanence figures across documents. The low extraction confidence and five empty data tables further weaken the evidentiary base.
