Below is a full list of types of CDR projects and buyer credit retirements that we track across 100+ countries around the globe.
Projects around farming practices or livestock management. Gross split is between arable farming related activities aimed at soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration and livestock methane management. The first ones include reductions in tillage and fertilizer application among other potential activities.

Energy efficiency projects aim to reduce energy consumption by implementing measures such as upgrading buildings, appliances, and industrial processes. By reducing energy demand, these projects indirectly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

These projects involve planting new forests, conserving or restoring existing forests or other land based ecosystems. Trees and vegetation absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, making these projects effective in removing CO2 from the atmosphere.

These projects provide cleaner and more efficient household devices such as cookstoves to households in developing countries. Traditional cookstoves often burn biomass fuels inefficiently, leading to high emissions. By improving cookstoves you not only reduce emissions but also improve indoor air quality.

These projects involve generating electricity or heat from renewable sources such as wind, solar, hydro, or biomass. By supporting these projects, carbon emissions associated with fossil fuel-based energy generation can be avoided.

These projects focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste, including landfill gas capture, composting, and waste-to-energy initiatives. By properly managing waste, these projects prevent the release of methane and other greenhouse gasses

Get credits for using biogas instead of a polluting fuel - the corresponding sector then depends on how the biogas is generated or used (e.g. if comes from cow dung its agriculture, if it comes from other types of organic waste, if it’s waste disposal, if its used for cooking its household devices, if it’s used to power transport its transportation...)

Methane is produced and emitted by landfills, during wastewater treatment, in natural gas and petroleum systems, from agricultural activities (livestock and rice cultivation), and during coal mining. Classification to sector depends on how the methane is used and where it comes from.

Land management practices greatly influence the amount of carbon sequestered in soil. Practices that increase the amount of soil carbon stored include reduced or no tillage, prevention of overgrazing, reduction or increased precision of fertilizer application, and the maintenance of ground cover through cover cropping.
