Description
The Caribbean Region climate change mitigation project is an initiative of Forestal Monterrey Colombia S.A.S (FMC), which, with the support of Greenwood Resources, leads the development of commercial forest plantations and protects areas of tropical dry forest (bs-T) in the departments of Bolivar and Magdalena in Colombia. The FMC company implements greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation actions, developing reforestation and forest conservation activities to avoid deforestation and degradation of the natural forest on its land through the mechanism for reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation (REDD)+. FMC seeks to reduce GHG emissions in approximately 5,864 hectares of tropical dry forest in the Colombian Caribbean region. Likewise, FMC has Melina (Gmelina Arborea) and Ceiba tolúa (Pachira quinata) plantations with which it seeks to remove more than 80,000 tCO2e in an area of 2,416.8 ha.
