Forestry Conservation Projects
For a greener, brighter future
GreenCarbon is a forestry conservation project originator
We bring together the world’s most environmentally focused investors, organisations and governments who have a strong desire to avoid climate change.
GreenCarbon originates forestry projects that focus on the creation of carbon offsets for the Voluntary Carbon Market. It is our intention to partner with industry experts to design, implement and obtain approval for these projects.
Our mission is to support the global transition to net-zero emissions, while delivering tangible benefits to local communities, and creating value for our investors and partners.
Generating carbon offsets through REDD+ projects
GreenCarbon will develop these forestry projects as REDD+ projects. The aim of REDD+ is to encourage developing countries to contribute to climate change mitigation efforts by:
i) reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by slowing, halting and reversing forest loss and degradation; and
ii) increasing removal of GHGs from the earth’s atmosphere through the conservation, management and expansion of forests.
It our intention that our carbon offsets will be certified under the Verified Carbon Standard and the Climate, Community and Biodiversity Standards.
An extensive forestry conservation project development pipeline
GreenCarbon aims to originate one of the largest pipelines of forestry projects globally. We work directly with indigenous communities and are enabled by key government stakeholders. Our top 20 proposed projects cover forest conservation development rights for over 9 million hectares of land in South America.
Additionally, we are sourcing a further portfolio of forestry projects in South America, Africa and Southeast Asia.
Capturing significant potential in the Voluntary Carbon Market
The voluntary carbon market offers significant growth opportunities.
The market is growing rapidly with demand for voluntary carbon offsets projected to grow by a factor 100 by 2050, up from a 2021 market size of $US1billion.
Carbon offset prices are also increasing rapidly as demand outstrips supply.
This growth in demand and strong price forecast will incentivise voluntary projects that have a positive impact on the environment and deliver significant benefits to indigenous communities
