The Gold Standard (GS), or Gold Standard for the Global Goals, is a standard and logo certification mark program for non-governmental emission reductions projects in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), the Voluntary Carbon Market and other climate and development interventions. It is published and administered by the Gold Standard Foundation, a non-profit foundation headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. It was designed with an intent to ensure that carbon credits are real and verifiable and that projects make measurable contributions to sustainable development. The objective of the GS is to add branding, with a quality label, to carbon credits generated by projects which can then be bought and traded by countries that have a binding legal commitment according to the Kyoto Protocol, busi

| - The Gold Standard (GS), or Gold Standard for the Global Goals, is a standard and logo certification mark program for non-governmental emission reductions projects in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), the Voluntary Carbon Market and other climate and development interventions. It is published and administered by the Gold Standard Foundation, a non-profit foundation headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. It was designed with an intent to ensure that carbon credits are real and verifiable and that projects make measurable contributions to sustainable development. The objective of the GS is to add branding, with a quality label, to carbon credits generated by projects which can then be bought and traded by countries that have a binding legal commitment according to the Kyoto Protocol, businesses or other organizations for carbon offsetting purposes. (en)
- Le Gold Standard (GS), ou Gold Standard for the Global Goals, est un standard et un programme de marque de certification des projets de réduction d'émissions non gouvernementales de gaz à effet de serre, dans le cadre du Mécanisme de développement propre (CDM), du Voluntary Carbon Market et d'autres mécanismes prévus par les accords internationaux sur le climat et le développement. Il est publié et administré par la Gold Standard Foundation, une fondation à but non lucratif dont le siège est à Genève, en Suisse. L'objectif de ce standard est de garantir que les crédits carbone sont réels et vérifiables, et que les projets de compensation carbone apportent des contributions mesurables au développement durable. Il se veut être un label de qualité des crédits carbone qui sont générés par des projets, et que des pays ayant un engagement juridique contraignant selon le protocole de Kyoto, ou des entreprises ou d'autres types d'organisations, peuvent ensuite acheter et échanger à des fins de compensation carbone.
