About this project

Help prevent 19 million tonnes of emissions, the equivalent of powering 3.2 million homes, by saving 180,000 hectares of some of the most diverse and fragile forests on the planet in Pará, Brazil.

Pará, Brazil houses one of the most diverse and abundant ecosystems on the planet. The Brazilian Rosewood project in Pará’s Portel municipality works to protect this fragile area by stopping rampant deforestation of carbon-dense rainforest and allowing degraded forests a chance to regenerate. It is supporting 130 families, helping them to strengthen social structures, gain land tenure, and improve their food security through agroforestry, plus providing jobs and education in forest protection and preservation and opportunities for communities to develop local businesses.
