This is hugely important as if a credit is non-additional, it has no impact on reducing or removing carbon from the atmosphere, making any resulting claim false.<\/p><p><strong>Permanence-\u00a0<\/strong>While the carbon reduced or removed by a credit should ideally stay out of the atmosphere for\u00a0100,000s of years, permanence is commonly considered as\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vcmprimer.org\/chapter-6-what-makes-a-high-quality-carbon-credit\/?ref=blog.toucan.earth\">100 years<\/a><\/strong> into the future.<\/p><p><strong>Robust quantification of emission reductions and removals-<\/strong>\u00a0Project developers claim that a certain amount of carbon will be reduced or removed by their project.

Carbon tokens recorded on open blockchains can help with double-counting issues and bring transparency to an opaque market.<\/p><\/div><\/div><p>By defining standardized criteria, the CCPs will be key in allowing carbon markets to scale with integrity.
