Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (Article 6.4)

The UN carbon crediting mechanism under Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement, supervised by a 12-member Supervisory Body, with a share of proceeds going to adaptation. Activities moving over from the Clean Development Mechanism now file through its information system, and an interim registry holds Article 6.4 emission reductions (A6.4ERs) while the full registry is built, making it the emerging compliance-grade counterpart to the voluntary standards.
