Brazil Cerrado 1 restores degraded cattle pastures in the Brazilian Cerrado through native forest restoration and FSC-certified sustainable forest management, aiming to remove around 7 million tCO₂ over 20 years while creating rural jobs and conserving biodiversity in a highly threatened biome. First-ever project to issue under VM0047.

Score breakdown

Vintage Recency

Max 15

15/15

Older credits often used outdated baselines and are increasingly rejected by buyers under CSRD/CORSIA.

Methodology Integrity

Max 20

18/20

Some methodologies have systemic over-crediting risk; newer engineered or ARR methods are higher integrity.

Standard & Verifier Quality

Max 15

10/15

Standard body and DOE/VVB matter for regulatory acceptance.

Additionality Evidence

Max 15

14/15

Without additionality, the credit doesn't represent real new abatement.

Permanence & Buffer Pool

Max 15

10/15

Critical for nature-based; insufficient buffer means reversal risk.

Co-benefits & SDGs

Max 10

9/10

Buyers under CSRD increasingly require co-benefit reporting.

Registry Red Flags

Max 10

10/10

Cancellations, double-counting flags, disputes drag the score down.
