Unser Modell — Continuous Carbon™ — ersetzt jährlich jede Tonne Kohlenstoff aus den Wäldern und schafft so ein dynamisches, sich selbst korrigierendes System. Wir behandeln Stornierungen wie erwartet und nicht in Ausnahmefällen. Deshalb entwickeln wir ein System, das von Natur aus dauerhaft ist und so das Risiko einer Umbuchung für unsere Käufer effektiv ausschließt.
Mechanism
We store carbon in one-year increments, renewing each unit consecutively to create a continuous sequence of removals. Reversal risk is limited by structuring storage annually. Credits are issued only ex post, ensuring every ton is real and verified.
Advantage
No projections. No assumptions. Just a transparent issuance framework where reversals are managed continuously. Buyers receive traceable, year-over-year credits they can trust – without the hidden risks of traditional forestry CDR.
Implication
We don’t ignore reversals. We manage them. By renewing storage every year, the system ensures continuity and integrity. Sequencing one-year tons year after year, with strict annual ex post verification, delivers CDR that is reliable and resilient.
Forest carbon is prone to risks like fire, storms, pests, and logging. To manage this risk, today’s standard safeguard is the buffer pool. But these “insurance” mechanisms are deeply flawed:
The result? A system that can’t keep its promises: safe forest removal.
All forest carbon is per definition temporary. Thats not a flaw. It’s a fact. The problem isn’t reversals. It’s how we deal with it. Buffer pools pretend to insure and solve this risk. At OXO Earth we don’t pretend. Instead we’ve built a system that acknowledges reversals and plans for them. That’s how we turn natural volatility into long-term climate reliability.
Continuous Carbon is a forest carbon model built on horizontal stacking: we remove one ton for one year, then treat it as reversed – and store it again the next year. This creates a continuous sequence of one ton stored over time, with reversals expected and accounted for, year after year. This creates a self-correcting, dynamic system that solves the reversal risk.
"Environmental integrity is at the heart of our mission. The carbon markets aren’t perfect. Neither are we. But we’ve solved the core problem of forest removal. So that companies can remove carbon without worrying about their reputation."
