Carbon Market Watch’s recommendations to the Article 6.4 Methodological Expert Panel

Carbon Market Watch submitted this during the global stakeholder consultation of the proposed ‘Comprehensive Lowered Emission Assessment and Reporting (CLEAR) Methodology for Cooking Energy Transitions’ under Article 6.4. The CLEAR methodology is a step in the right direction for clean cookstove methodologies but it still contains shortcomings which must be addressed. Failure to tackle these issues risks perpetuating the pervasive overcrediting linked to many existing cookstove methodologies.
