The European Union has set itself a binding target under the European Climate Law to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 at the latest. Achieving this ambition requires not only a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, but also (more…)

In the current effort to mitigate climate change and achieve net zero emissions, carbon storage technologies are gaining prominence. Two of the most promising methods that harness the power of natural processes (more…)

Forests play a key role in the fight against climate change. They represent a significant natural carbon reservoir, regulate the water regime of the landscape, support biodiversity and stabilize the soil. In recent years, project methodologies such as VM0044 (biochar) have come to the fore. (more…)

In the current climate change environment, Biochar Carbon Removal (BCR) has become a dominant and technically advanced method that allows companies to effectively neutralize their residual emissions. Unlike solutions (more…)

Currently, carbon credits are becoming a key pillar of the climate strategies of modern corporations. However, as carbon markets mature, buyers, regulators and auditors are placing increasing emphasis on quality, stability and verification of these credits. For (more…)

Biochar Biochar is a solid, carbon-rich material that is produced by the thermal conversion of biomass in an environment with limited or no oxygen. This process, known primarily as pyrolysis, turns organic waste into valuable (more…)

Achieving net zero goals is no longer just a matter of drastically reducing emissions. The scientific consensus is now clear: without active carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere, it is impossible to meet (more…)

Biochar has rapidly moved from being a marginal climate solution to a key carbon dioxide removal (CDR) method. Its ability to store carbon in a stable solid form for centuries, combined with the use of agricultural and biomass residues, makes it an extremely (more…)

This document presents a comprehensive framework for the transformation of the Slovak forestry and agricultural sectors into certified climate infrastructure through biochar production and generation (more…)

This expert analysis explores a new era in natural solutions to climate change, represented by the methodology Verra VM0047. This framework for afforestation, forest restoration and vegetation restoration (ARR) projects represents a fundamental shift from static to dynamic. (more…)

Transforming European forestry and agriculture towards carbon economy represents a complex process in which EU legislative frameworks, innovative technologies such as biochar and new economic models based on (more…)

Currently, European forests are facing massive impacts from climate change, which are manifested not only by destructive wind disasters, but also by a large-scale gradation of bark beetles, especially the bark beetle. Dead trees left in the landscape or quickly harvested (more…)

Carbon markets are systems that allow trading in carbon credits, each such credit representing the verified reduction, removal or prevention of the release of one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) or equivalent (more…)

A carbon credit (or offset) is a market-based instrument that represents avoiding the emission or removal of one tonne of carbon dioxide (CO2e) from the atmosphere. These credits allow individuals, companies or (more…)

The European Union, within the framework of Regulation (EU) 2021/1119 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 June 2021 committed to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 This ambitious goal requires not only drastic reductions in emissions (more…)

Carbon prices in Europe rose significantly in late 2025, reaching €83.79 per tonne on 15 December, a monthly increase of 3.1% and a year-on-year increase of 30%. The price of carbon allowances in the EU's main scheme (more…)

The rising cost of living and energy prices are a topic that worries many of us. At the same time, we hear about the need to transition to a greener economy, which can raise concerns about additional financial burdens – whether it’s more expensive (more…)

Article 6.4 , also known as the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism ( PACM ), aims to build a global market where countries can trade verified emission reductions. It replaces the old Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol, under which more than 7,800 projects were registered between 2006 and 2020. This new system ensures that carbon credits come from real and measurable emission reductions. (Jennifer L., more at CarbonCredits.com)

The European Commission is taking strong steps to ensure predictability and stability for a key pillar of decarbonisation – the new Emissions Trading System for Buildings and Road Transport (ETS 2). This system is essential for a set of policies aimed at (more…)

Biowaste, which includes food, garden and agricultural materials, makes up a significant portion of municipal waste. If this waste is improperly landfilled under anaerobic conditions, it releases methane (CH₄), extremely strong (more…)
