Blue Planet has introduced a new portfolio of carbon credits derived from scientific waste processing. The initiative focuses on diverting waste from landfills to reduce methane emissions and create verified carbon offsets. This approach uses waste transformation technology to turn landfill materials into useful products, providing a measurable way for companies to invest in emissions reduction through waste management.

Blue Planet is pushing carbon credits based on waste processing. It is a decent angle, but I want to see the specific methodology they use to verify the methane avoidance.
The real question is which standard they are using for verification. If this is a proprietary system and not a recognized global standard, the market value of these credits will be low.
Waste to value sounds good on paper. I wonder about the energy intensity of the processing itself. Does the carbon cost of the machinery eat into the credits they are selling?
Exactly. Logistics and transport of that waste usually kill the margins. If they are not processing on site, the trucking emissions are a huge variable.
