American Carbon Registry (ACR)
Definition:
American Carbon Registry (ACR) is a carbon standard and registry managed by Winrock International. ACR details requirements and specifications for the quantification, monitoring, and reporting of forest project-based GHG emissions reductions and removals, methodological acceptance, verification, registration, and issuance of offsets for trade in the global voluntary and U.S. pre-compliance carbon markets. Methodologies are available for afforestation, reforestation, and revegetation; improved forest management; and REDD projects categories. ACR carbon methodologies are not eligible under the CDM.
