We are pleased to announce that Celestial Green Ventures have very kindly offered to both sponsor our expedition and to offset the entire carbon emissions produced as a result of this project.
Celestial Green Ventures develops and implements REDD+ forest conservation projects, within the Amazonia region of Brazil. By carrying out these avoided deforestation projects, the company is able to generate carbon benefits which also have a positive impact on the communities and biodiversity within the project areas.
Celestial Green Ventures is committed to making long-term environmental, socio-economic and ecosystem enhancements that are made possible by protecting and conserving vulnerable areas of rainforest that are at risk of deforestation.
Celestial Green Ventures brings innovative thinking, technological development and sustainable solutions together to provide a fresh approach to environmental protection.
All of the carbon emissions produced as a result of the Northeast Greenland Caves Project will be offset through the Trocano Araratama Conservation project. The Trocano Araretama Conservation Project is located in the Municipality of Borba, in the Amazonas State in North-West Brazil. The project has been active since June 2011 and covers an area totalling 1,346,541 hectares.
The aim of the project is to protect the forest against deforestation, to conserve the biodiversity that is present and to create benefits for the communities within the project area.
The Trocano Araretama Conservation Project has successfully been validated and verified by Environmental Services Inc. to the Natural Forest Standard.
