UNDO trial enhanced rock weathering project in Canada
CT-649
Score Breakdown
Integrity
missing Additionality, baseline approach, leakage treatment, and permanence provisions were not found in the extracted record
inferred No contradictions were detected, but this provides little assurance given the absence of underlying documents
Transparency
missing No VVB, monitoring period, or quantified monitoring/verification results were found in the extracted record
missing Registry-relevant fields (e.g., CORSIA eligibility, MRV methods) were not found in the extracted record
Claim Safety
missing Over-crediting risk cannot be evaluated because baseline and monitoring assumptions were not found in the extracted record
missing Double-claim/eligibility status (e.g., CORSIA/CCP) was not found in the extracted record
Documentation
missing No evidence documents were provided/parsed (0 documents used)
missing Minimum extraction confidence is low, indicating poor readability of at least one key source
Detailed Analysis
Integrity
No project design or assurance documents were available in the extracted record, so additionality testing, baseline selection, leakage treatment, and permanence/reversal provisions cannot be confirmed. With no monitoring or verification report evidence, there is no basis to assess whether credited removals/avoidance are conservative. The absence of any stated buffer, reversal events, or leakage deductions should be treated as an evidence gap rather than a positive finding.
Transparency
Transparency is very weak because no documents were available to confirm the VVB, monitoring period, MRV methods, or any verified results. The extracted record provides no ERR claimed versus verified figures, no uncertainty treatment, and no registry completeness indicators beyond the registry code. Low extraction confidence further reduces confidence that missing items are merely absent rather than unreadable.
Claim Safety
Claim safety is low because the extracted record does not include baseline methodology, monitoring approach, or any third-party verification outcomes that would bound over-crediting risk. Eligibility/status indicators relevant to claim risk (such as CORSIA eligibility or CCP status) were not found in the extracted record, so double-claim risk cannot be screened. Given the lack of substantiation, any public claims would be difficult to defend.
Documentation
Documentation is effectively absent: the extracted record lists zero evidence documents and zero documents used. Minimum extraction confidence is low, indicating at least one key source was poorly readable, which further undermines completeness and reliability. Without core documents (PDD, monitoring report, verification report), the project cannot be assessed against standard quality expectations.
Overall
No contradictions were reported, but this is not meaningful because there are no underlying documents in the extracted record to compare. Scores are therefore driven primarily by missing evidence and low extraction confidence, which together indicate high uncertainty and elevated quality risk. Note: under the stated gate rules, a documentation score below 3.0 would cap transparency post-scoring.
Audit Analysis
The extracted record contains no usable project documentation, so core quality attributes (additionality, baseline, MRV, leakage, and safeguards) cannot be substantiated. Given the very low documentation completeness and low extraction confidence, the risk of over-crediting and weak claim substantiation is high based on available evidence.
Project Description
Why this project needs your support : UNDO has launched the first enhanced rock weathering project in Canada, which will be removing an estimated 300 tonnes in 2030 from work delivered by farmers to date. These operations are helping farmers to improve soil pH and boost crop yield as minerals are released into the soil. These early operations will remove CO2 based on UNDO's geochemical weathering model and, if successful, will results in verified credits in the form of Puro CORCs. This commitment is made on a best effort basis, as UNDO cannot guarantee the delivery of CORCs from this initial operation.
Red Flags
- No project documents were available in the extracted record (0 documents used), preventing verification of baseline, additionality, MRV, leakage, or safeguards
- Low extraction confidence indicates at least one key source was poorly readable, further reducing reliability
Credit Vintages
Nessuna emissione registrata sul registro.
Cosa migliorerebbe questo punteggio
- Provide and parse the core Gold Standard documentation set (PDD/design document, monitoring report, and VVB validation/verification report) so additionality, baseline, leakage, and MRV can be assessed
- Disclose registry and assurance details (VVB name, monitoring period, claimed vs verified results, uncertainty treatment, and any eligibility/claiming status such as CORSIA/CCP) to reduce claim and double-counting risk
Questi suggerimenti indicano quali prove pubbliche aggiuntive potrebbero migliorare il livello di confidenza di questa valutazione. Non garantiscono un punteggio futuro più alto.
