Managed land proxy “plus" sounds like a nightmare, it would basically reward deforestation from what I could understand, cmiiw
Shortly after Cullenward and Searchinger resigned this summer, the GHG Protocol announced that it would be aligning its carbon emissions accounting with [ISO] […] ISO has its own proprietary forest carbon accounting standard that SourceMaterial and Bloomberg report closely mirrors the managed land proxy approach. In combining their methods, the jointly formed committees that help make those decisions could be anonymous, per ISO policy and against GHGP Protocol, which stipulates that membership lists be made publicly available.
I wonder why
Cullenward has reasoned that this could offer cover for corporate representatives to dominate talks more openly than they have been, given the GHG Protocol’s governance rules.
