Supply Side Developments to Jurisdictional REDD+ Projects | ESG Decoded Podcast #151

‘REDD’ stands for ‘Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries’, with the "+" adding activities like sustainable forest management and conservation. These projects aim to protect tropical forests, generate carbon credits, and support the fight against climate change. In the first part of this series, host Erika Schiller is joined by Bryan McCann, Senior Director of Corporate Solutions at Climate Impact X and early leader at LEAF Coalition, and Anna Stablum, ClimeCo’s Director of Business Development in Asia, to explore the history of jurisdictional REDD+, the difference between private and sovereign projects, and how many forest-rich countries are turning to carbon markets to preserve their green resources. They also discuss the supply side of REDD+ projects, how the credits are created, and the challenges of scaling these forest conservation efforts.Additionally, you will hear about the latest updates in methodologies that improve the accuracy and trustworthiness of REDD+ projects, ensuring long-term forest protection through more reliable carbon credit systems. Are you curious about who buys these REDD+ credits and why they are essential? Tune in to part two, where we explore the demand side of the REDD+ market and its role in sustainability and compliance strategies.
