On 30 June 2026, the Greenhouse Gas Protocol released the Land Sector and Removals Guidance (“LSRG”), a companion resource to the Land Sector and Removals Standard(“LSRS), which provides companies greater detail on how to account and report greenhouse gas emissions and CO₂ removals from agricultural land use and emerging CO₂ removal technologies. The LSRG is available at this link.
The LSRG supports corporate implementation of the LSRS – which outlines the accounting and reporting requirements, recommendations and options – through worked examples, equations and calculation guidance. It features 10 corporate case studies, from companies including Mars, PepsiCo, and General Mills, to showcase practical application across topics.
You can join GHG Protocol experts on Thursday, July 16 from 9:00am – 10:00am ET for a launch webinar to learn more about what is included in the LSRG and how companies can use it alongside the LSRS to track progress towards land sector emissions and removal targets, and to disclose climate impact with confidence. The registration form for the webinar is available at this link.
