The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM) has designated the Global Carbon Council (GCC) as a CCP-eligible program. This decision follows updates to GCC's standards regarding non-permanence risk and safeguard procedures, allowing its projects to seek high-integrity labels. Additionally, the ICVCM approved Isometric's mangrove restoration protocol and provided conditional approval for Verra's renewable energy and coal mine methane standards. Conversely, ART TREES' high forest cover crediting level was denied, requiring significant revisions to its baseline emission calculations.
