The short answer
To claim avoided emissions, you need to show what the alternative would have been, how much material you replaced and what its biogenic content is. Recording this per delivery makes your reporting verifiable.
Start with the baseline
Avoided emissions are always compared with a reference situation, such as landfill or the fossil fuel you would otherwise burn. Write down which reference you use and why.
