    Conditions
    Only through CarboNZero product certification (1 point) or CEMARS product certification (0.5 points), each being independent verification and certification that the product's carbon footprint is calculated to PAS 2050:2011. CarboNZero also requires: measures to manage, reduce and mitigate the product's net GHG emissions to zero; a commitment to an emissions management and reduction plan; and offsetting of remaining unavoidable emissions with carbon credits that Homestar calls “verified”. CEMARS also requires: the product's lifecycle GHG emissions measured; and a commitment to manage and reduce them under an emissions management and reduction plan. Points apply only where at least 50% of the total material content of the category is reused, eco-preferred or responsibly sourced. Evidence: datasheets and/or the third-party verification scheme certificate.
