The Brazilian Rosewood Protected Forest Project protects 177,899 hectares of high conservation value rainforest and will prevent more that 20 million tonnes of CO2 over its 40 year lifetime
In addition to the carbon benefits, the project protects endangered tree species like the Brazilian Rosewood and provides jobs for local communities, enabling them to grow certain cash crops. The project also protects at risk animals including the Giant Anteater, the Golden Parakeet and the Ka’apor Capuchin Monkey
