This document is part of the EU-funded project CREDIBLE, Grant Agreement 101112951, and it captures the main outputs of the first round of conversations held within the Focus Group on “The best scale for a carbon certification framework”. The main goal of this Focus Group is to generate recommendations and opinions that could be used in the development and deployment of relevant policies around carbon farming, and particularly in the definition of the Carbon Removal Certification Framework. These informed opinions have emerged through the active participation of experts, with details provided in Tables 1 and 2, in a number of activities, with the main ones listed in Table 3. In order to convey the recommendations to the broadest possible audience, the document includes the following sections: an introduction, which helps to clarify the problem and why addressing this topic was considered important by the CREDIBLE consortium; a short process report, which summarises the conversations held by the Focus Group, highlighting the key points and tensions that emerged; and a summary of recommendations, which concisely presents the Focus Group’s views on how to best address some of these tensions.
