It is happening even more quickly than we feared! No corner of the globe is immune from the devastating consequences of climate change. Weather patterns are changing, sea levels are rising, and weather events are becoming more extreme.
Billions of tons of CO2 are released into the atmosphere every year as a result of burning fossil fuels and chopping down forests. Humans are the main cause of climate change by producing greenhouse gas emissions at a record high, with no signs of slowing down.
It’s important to take steps to reduce your greenhouse gas emissions as much as possible. As a next step, you can invest in carbon projects to offset the emissions you’re still working towards reducing, or can’t entirely eliminate. A carbon offset represents one metric tonne of carbon removed from the atmosphere and stored by trees. For every tonne of emission you produce, you can purchase the equivalent in carbon offsets to reduce your carbon footprint.
To qualify, a forest carbon project must demonstrate that its greenhouse gas-reducing benefits would not have been possible without funding from offset sales. In the Great Bear Rainforest Carbon Project, for example, old-growth forests that were slated for industrial logging are now protected – with support from carbon offset funding. By leaving forests standing, trees continue to provide clean air benefits. And they generate revenue for the local economy through offset sales rather than clear-cut logging.
Revenue flowing into the communities creates long-term economic opportunities in areas with very high unemployment. The sale of carbon credits provides revenue to support social development within local communities, including new jobs in sustainable forestry, stewardship and management support for marine and land-based protected areas throughout project's territories. The revenue also supports a host of other long-term sustainable economic initiatives, such as renewable energy projects, ecotourism and sustainable fisheries, which will help our conservation-based economy thrive into the future.
