Biological Carbon Canada

Did you know? Carbon can be stored in soil, grasslands, and forests, making agriculture a key part of climate solutions. 🌎 #CarbonSequestration #NatureBasedSolutions #Sustainability #BCC #CarbonLevy

Check out our GHG Calculator! Download BCC's Farm Management Calculator to measure the GHG emissions from your farm’s direct sources and its indirect energy consumption. ⬇️ bit.ly/4be8i0F #Sustainability #Emissions

Carbon is quickly becoming a new business commodity. The carbon marketplace trades data-backed certificates tied to emission reductions, emission avoidance + improved soil carbon sinks, including regulatory offsets + voluntary credits. Read our document: bit.ly/4bFU2zl

In case you missed it, the 2026 GHG inventory report is out. The 69,726 kt is 10.2% of the total CDN emissions. Ag is up over last year by 1%. The growth is on-farm fuels and our cropping sector. All livestock is slightly down, mirroring inventory.

Good data drives good decisions. From measuring soil carbon to tracking emissions, better tools mean better outcomes for both producers and the climate. That’s where the work needs to scale. biologicalcarbon.ca #AgTech #ClimateData #CarbonMarkets

There was an announcement from @RBC this week that they bought 5,000 credits from a US rice project. I hope @RBC is aware that there are 63,000 offsets ready for sale from Alberta feedlots! #cndag #abpol @TELUS_Ag

🌱 A single seed can grow food, restore soil, and support climate solutions. This #InternationalSeedDay, we celebrate the connection between seeds, soil health, and carbon stewardship. Learn more from Biological Carbon Canada: biologicalcarbon.ca #BCC #CarbonOffsets

Grasslands Market Overview Ag carbon credit supply is shaped by complex realities: • Ranch emissions occur over large landscapes and long timeframes • Biological systems are variable + difficult to measure • Ag is not a reporting emitter Read more: bit.ly/4bFU2zl

Earth Day reminder: Healthy soils are one of our most powerful climate tools. BCC supports farmers and land stewards in measuring, managing, and monetizing soil carbon through credible offset systems. Explore our work: biologicalcarbon.ca #EarthDay #CarbonMarkets #SoilHealth

How can native grasslands participate in the carbon market? We’ve published a Quick Summary outlining the current market landscape + opportunities to enhance carbon sequestration in parcels of native grass. 📖 Read the full doc here: bit.ly/4bFU2zl #BCC #CarbonOffset

New Scope 3 emissions guidance means new accounting factors. BCC has updated our calculator to include: • Land conversion • Energy sector product leakage • Irrigation canals & reservoirs Explore the updated version: bit.ly/40Urjka #BCC #CarbonOffsets

In March, BCC met with offset offices in Nova Scotia & AB to discuss implications of the new Federal Soil Carbon Protocol for ag offsets. One key issue: both provinces will require policy & regulatory changes before farmers can use federal offsets for compliance. #CarbonOffsets

This Easter, we’re celebrating the season of renewal on Canadian farms & landscapes. Healthy soils, thriving crops, and strong carbon sinks all begin with thoughtful land stewardship. From all of us at BCC. #HappyEaster! 🐰 biologicalcarbon.ca #SoilCarbon #SustainableAg

Want to understand how native grasslands can participate in the carbon market? Our Quick Summary shows the current state of the marketplace & the opportunities to improve carbon sequestration from parcels of native grass. Read the full document here: bit.ly/4bFU2zl

NEW Guidance on Scope 3 emissions accounting was released in January. In response, BCC updated our calculator to include new emission factors for: • Land conversion • Product leakage in the energy sector • Irrigation canals & reservoirs Updated version: bit.ly/40Urjka

@soilcouncil The outcome of the new soil strategy might be getting to a hard NO on each of the questions.
