The Mai Ndombe REDD+ Project, located in the western part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Africa, will protect 248,956 hectares of forest from industrial logging, unsustainable fuel wood extraction and slash and burn agriculture.
This project aims to conserve the flora and fauna within the designated area. By safeguarding these two former logging concessions, it will preserve critical forested regions and their essential ecosystem services.
Many other additional project activities will help both local communities and biodiversity to minimise and adapt to expected climate change impacts. Improved seed distribution and training on improved agricultural methods will lead to increased yields and adaptation to changes in rainfall, the timing of growing seasons, and changing temperatures.
These carbon offsets are permanently retired on a registry guaranteeing each credit cannot be resold.
+Please be advised we are unable to provide individual serial numbers for online transactions.
