Procedure for development, revision, and clarification of methodologies and methodological tools

This document outlines the Impact Quantification Methodology Approval Process under the Gold Standard for the Global Goals (GS4GG)

Requirements for Baseline Determination in Methodologies

This standard defines how to set a "Crediting Baseline"—the reference level against which emission reductions are measured. The core principle is that baselines shall be set below Business-As-Usual (BAU) levels to encourage increasing ambition over time.

Soil Organic Carbon Framework Methodology

The methodology presents requirements to quantify changes in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks through the adoption of improved agricultural practices. Activities can achieve avoidance of emissions as well as sequestration of carbon in the soil, both which result in increased SOC content.

Soil Organic Carbon Activity Module – Biostimulants for soil revitalisation

This Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) Activity Module presents requirements and guidance to quantify and monitor greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and soil organic carbon (SOC) changes resulting from change in soil management practices within agricultural systems through application of biostimulants for soil revitalisation. The eligible activities are intended to achieve net carbon sequestration in the soil carbon pool. This activity module shall be applied in conjunction with the Soil Organic Carbon Framework Methodology.
