The U.S. Urban Forest Protocol is now available as two project-specific protocols: U.S. Urban Tree Planting and U.S. Urban Forest Management. The protocols provide guidance to quantify and verify GHG reductions from tree planting, maintenance, and/or improved management activities implemented to permanently increase carbon storage through trees.
