FINANCE AFFORESTATION/REFORESTATION CARBON PROJECTS

Forestry and other land use accounts for nearly 14 percent of annual global CO2 emissions. Afforestation and reforestation capture up to 7.6 billion metric tons of CO2 annually. Make financing these carbon projects part of your holistic corporate climate strategy.

WHAT IS AFFORESTATION AND REFORESTATION?

Afforestation and reforestation both involve establishing trees on non-forested land. Reforestation refers to re-establishing forests on land with recent tree cover, whereas afforestation refers to planting forests on land that hasn't supported forest for a long time. According to IPCC Guidelines, afforestation is the "planting of new forests on lands which, historically, have not contained forests."

OUR PROJECT APPROACH

FORLIANCE afforestation and reforestation projects demonstrate our deep commitment to inclusive community engagement, stringent adherence to global standards like Gold Standard, Verified Carbon Standard and Climate Action Reserve and a strong focus on biodiversity and environmental integrity. We ensure project additionality through rigorous legal and financial assessments and prioritize transparency and integrity in all operations. By working closely with local communities to improve their livelihoods, employing innovative monitoring techniques, and providing detailed impact reports, we deliver high-quality, sustainable, and impactful environmental solutions that benefit both biodiversity and communities. Our afforestation and reforestation projects have even been recognized as pilot projects for developing industry methodologies, showcasing our leadership and dedication to excellence in the field.

THE CRUCIAL ROLE AND EFFECTIVENESS OF AFFORESTATION AND REFORESTATION PROJECTS

Economic and social benefits

Afforestation and reforestation projects stimulate local economies through sustainable forestry practices and eco-tourism, creating jobs and improving environmental conditions. These initiatives enhance community well-being by diversifying economic opportunities and supporting livelihoods dependent on forest resources.

Gender equality

The projects promote gender equality by ensuring equal opportunities for men and women in employment, skills development, and decision-making roles. Reinvesting carbon finance revenues into social activities underscores a commitment to inclusive growth and sustainable development.

Biodiversity enhancement

Newly planted forests provide crucial habitats for diverse flora and fauna, contributing significantly to biodiversity conservation efforts and promoting ecological balance within ecosystems.

Soil protection

Tree roots stabilize soil, preventing erosion and enhancing soil health and fertility through increased organic matter. This supports sustainable land management practices and improves agricultural productivity in surrounding areas.

Water regulation

Forests regulate the water cycle, improving water quality and helping to reduce the risks of floods and droughts by maintaining a balanced hydrological cycle.

Carbon sequestration

Trees absorb CO2 from the atmosphere through photosynthesis, storing carbon in their biomass and soil. This process significantly reduces atmospheric CO2 levels, helping to mitigate climate change.
