Why is certification important?

Certified climate projects are a key component in the fight against climate change. They require regular monitoring, transparency, consultation, and high-quality work at every stage of the project. Certification then confirms that the project has met all required standards. This results in a certified carbon credit that is real, measurable, permanent, and recorded in a central database for transparency and visibility of actual impact.

Collaboration and Project Process

YGG collaborates with landowners on climate projects, establishing leases on specified areas for up to 50 years, depending on the nature of the climate action. A permit is obtained, followed by a preparation and implementation phase that typically takes 1-2 years.

Once completed, the areas are monitored and measured every 5-10 years throughout the project period, with benefits certified by an independent party. Certified carbon credits are generated based on verified carbon sequestration and are divided between YGG and the landowners according to their contributions to the project.
