Analysis

The Tecocomulco forestry project in Hidalgo, Mexico, has VVB-confirmed additionality and no material findings, but is weakened by a 0% leakage deduction with no stated justification, a project-specific baseline that has not been reassessed, and a contradiction in the crediting period (30 years in the verification report vs. 10 years in an appendix). The verified emissions reduction (3,353 tCO₂) substantially exceeds the claimed figure (1,444 tCO₂), which is a positive signal, though the absence of a lifetime ex-ante estimate prevents a rigorous pro-rata check.

    The Integrity Council approved some versions of this protocol and not others: check which version the project uses before claiming CCP quality.

  • Removal or reduction

    Carbon removal

    Takes CO₂ out of the atmosphere — the only type that can neutralise residual emissions in an SBTi net-zero claim.

    Source: registry label

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
