Project Information
The BBB/Embrasca ARR Project, located in the Brazilian Amazon, involves the reforestation of previously degraded pastures with oil palm trees. This initiative aims to mitigate climate change by planting nearly 25,000 hectares of oil palm trees, which is expected to remove over 3.7 million tons of CO2 from the atmosphere over 30 years. Additionally, the project contributes to the restoration of biodiversity, as oil palm cultivation on unused agricultural land reduces carbon emissions significantly compared to deforestation, and it fosters local sustainable development by providing employment and promoting social and environmental responsibility. The project aligns with best sustainability practices, focusing on respecting the environment and supporting traditional and non-traditional communities in the region. The BBB/Embrasca ARR Project is situated within sectoral scope 14 of the International Carbon Registry and operates in Tailândia and Tomé-Açu, Pará, Brazil. The project transforms previously degraded pastures into a sustainable agroforestry ecosystem by planting oil palm trees, effectively addressing environmental challenges and promoting climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and community development.
