# Democratizing carbon market 🌎🌳

The voluntary carbon credit market presents an important barrier to entry for small land owner. zeroCO2 with its experience in VCM wants to bring transparency to revolutionize and increase accessibility to investments in environmental regeneration through nature-based projects

**Main Pillars**&#x20;

**🌿 Additionality**&#x20;

**🔬 Dynamic carbon accounting** trough proprietary AI Machine learning and Remote Sensing mix model with field data and physiolgical parameters.

**⚙️Leakeage**

**🛰 Monitoring of project and of disturbances trough remote sensing**

**🔬Permanence**

**💻 Verifica**

Validation of projects relies on ground measurements, which if used as the only approach is slow, expensive, infrequent and unrepresentative.This is why the average size of certified projects is 500 hectares belonging to large commercial farms with low additionally of carbon removals.\
Certifying a project with Verra or Gold Standard requires costs of around 100-200 k euro with the need to produce complex and extensive documentation of more than 200-300 pages.

zeroCO2 crede che comunque sia necessario passare da una verifica di parte terza, tuttavia non riteniamo fondamentale che il verificatore debba essere necessariamente un VVB che per i costi e i tempi richiesti rappresenta un'ulteriore barriera. Per questa ragione è stato scelto di creare una indipendent expert reviewer secretariat che verrà coinvolto per esprimere una review di parte terza ogni qual volta un progetto venga immesso nel registro.&#x20;

**Registry**&#x20;

zeroCO2 dispone di un registro pubblico e decentralizzato. La sicurezza di tale registro viene garantita dall'a
