Protecting forests

📍 Para Portel, Brazil

Portel-Para Amazonas Protection

The main objective of the project is to avoid and prevent unplanned deforestation in native forests thus avoiding the net emission of 10,564,630 tCO2e through a period of 41 years of the Project’s lifetime.

The relevance:

The endangered Amazon rainforest plays an critical part in regulating the world's oxygen and carbon cycles
In the past few decades deforestation has advanced rapidly through clearing for agriculture and illegal logging
By protecting the forests, not only many endangered species can be protected, but also the carbon footprint can significantly be reduced
