Reporting

To report in a transparent and credible way, companies should:

Align with emerging regulatory standards

  • Follow disclosure principles under your specific region's climate disclosure rules
  • Clearly distinguish emissions reductions from carbon removals in all reporting.
  • Specify the methodology, verification standard, registry, and the durability profile of the removals purchased.

Be specific and consistent in communication

  • Report the volumes purchased, delivered, and retired, with project-level detail when possible.
  • Provide information on CDR types, project locations, partners, and any verification or certification systems used.
  • Maintain consistency between public announcements, sustainability reports, investor updates, and internal documentation to avoid discrepancies.

Engage stakeholders and demonstrate transparency

  • Share your purchase and delivery data with CDR.fyi, the trusted source for durable CDR market data.
  • Communicate setbacks, delays, or learnings transparently through appropriate channels—such as sustainability or annual reports, dedicated climate disclosures, corporate websites, or public updates—rather than avoiding or downplaying them.

Show a long-term plan and strategic evolution

  • Explain how the current procurement supports a long-term carbon removal portfolio, including a gradual transition toward more durable removals over time.
  • Describe how the strategy aligns with recognized guidance such as the Oxford Offsetting Principles.
  • Demonstrate readiness to update the approach as standards, science, and regulation evolve.
