Our research outputs are designed to inform more ambitious policy, commitments and practice, accelerate corporate and industrial emission reductions alongside whole-of-economy reductions and removals and advance high integrity carbon crediting frameworks that deliver enduring co-benefits.
In 2022, the inaugural Carbon Farming Scorecard was launched. This scorecard represented the most comprehensive analysis to-date of Australia’s carbon farming policy frameworks.
