"The Integrity Council’s work seeks to bring consistency to the market, overcome this fragmentation and give buyers confidence that they are funding projects making a genuine impact. The Core Carbon Principles (CCPs), launched in March 2023, set a global benchmark for high-integrity. They are ten fundamental principles for high-quality carbon credits that create real, verifiable climate impact, based on the latest science and best practice. The CCP label is designed to build trust and unlock investment by making it easy for buyers to identify a high-integrity credit no matter which carbon-crediting program issued it, what kind of credit it is, or where it is generated. This publication is the Integrity Council’s now complete Assessment Framework, with full criteria for assessing carbon-crediting programs and Categories of carbon credits against the CCPs. It is supported by an updated Assessment Procedure and an Assessment Platform which carbon-crediting programs can use to apply for assessment."

"The CDR Buyer's Guide is designed to provide a neutral, end-to-end framework for organizations that are considering or already purchasing CDR. It walks buyers through the full procurement journey — from understanding why CDR is needed, to defining a purchase strategy, understanding CDR methods and MRV, accessing supply through different channels, executing contracts, and reporting and managing credits after purchase."

"The Open Standard Carbon Removal Agreement (OSCAR) is a shared, open, and freely available contracting framework designed to simplify durable carbon removal transactions."

"Our whitepaper covers: How the carbon removal market works, What different project types actually deliver, How to build a portfolio that holds up as standards evolve. It includes a background to carbon removals, spot pricing from Abatable's transaction data, and a practical framework for matching your carbon removals portfolio to your stage of decarbonisation."

"Biomass-based CDR made up 95%+ of high-durability carbon removal in 2025, yet no framework governed agricultural residue sourcing. Carbon Direct built this guide, in collaboration with Microsoft and Stripe, to give buyers concrete criteria to embed in contracts today."

"The all-new report provides a comprehensive resource for companies that are looking to understand what net-zero commitments must look like in practice, how carbon removals can be correctly used to meet these commitments, what remains unresolved, and what corporates can do about it."
