Public Consultation of Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) in Soil Methodology

by puro.earth; Consultation period open until 17.10.2022

„Puro.earth present their first ERW carbon crediting methodology for public consultation. […] The working group has defined safeguards and quantification approaches aligned with the latest science. This methodology ensures little to no environmental impact, which is critical to increasing public acceptance of ERW. It sets strict thresholds for contaminant levels of the ground rock in accordance with the EU regulation for inorganic soil improvers and require projects to perform laboratory tests of soil samples to establish baselines. In acidic conditions, ERW has the co-benefit of restoring nutrient depleted soils.“
