Carbon footprinting is becoming increasingly important for farms supplying into retail chains with net-zero commitments. While emissions have historically been the focus, measuring carbon removals — such as carbon stored in soil and trees — is gaining momentum.
Blue North’s Carbon Removals FAQ Guide explains:
- Why understanding the balance between emissions and removals matters.
- The current challenges in accurately measuring and verifying removals.
- How global standards and methodologies are evolving to better include on-farm sequestration.
- The tools and support Blue North offers for measuring Product Carbon Footprints (PCF), Corporate Carbon Footprints (CCF), and removals.
Recognising removals is not yet standard in all reporting frameworks — but the shift is underway, and farms that start engaging now will be better prepared for future requirements.
