Biodiverse Carbon

Carbono Biodiverso®️ links the fight against climate change with nature conservation through carbon offsetting. This project aims to preserve 7400 large trees in Lousada, the Gigantes Verdes®️, preventing each one from releasing 1.5 tonnes of stored CO2 and sequestering a further 50kg from the atmosphere each year. Each Green Giant has around 8 different types of microhabitats that support countless organisms. We guarantee the preservation of these trees, so that they can continue to provide their services, through the annual payment of the Ecosystem Services Management and Remuneration Subsidy to their owners. For every Green Giant preserved, we will plant 120 new trees over a 10-year period, restoring habitats and increasing their carbon sequestration capacity. With the certification of this project currently being analysed, we have already registered several partnerships with companies. The project has more than 200 individual subscribers.
