REDD+ Reforestation
Rehabilitating degraded farmlands and ecosystems
Indigenous Peoples are forest dependent communities with close connections to and reliance on forests for sustaining themselves. They are adversely affected by the loss of forests, wildlife, environmental resources, pollution, poverty and marginalisation caused by carbon emissions, global warming and climate change. However, they are not responsible for the 51 annual tons of Carbon emissions.
We know that it is imperative to rapidly reforest at least one billion hectares of degraded land – an area about the size of China. We also know that the annual 51 billion tons of emissions will continue unabated for decades to come through unrelenting population growth, urbanisation and land use change. We understand the imperative to generate substantial income streams and revenue for continued growth of all Climate Change Adaptation actions.
The CPRSX Climate Change Action Plan™ proposes to reforest 4 million hectares of land. The by-product of the plan is mitigating and overcoming food and water insecurity; objectives that are possible through successfully developing hundreds of land owner Joint Venture Partnerships. Together with our JV partners we are to develop REDD+ projects on their lands, sequester carbon emissions and engage in emissions trading and sales with verifiable permits and ERU’s.
An independent Feasibility Study together with a professional 30 year financial modelling and cash flow forecast, shows that our first REDD+ project called Project Eden on 139,000 ha on one particular Ancestral Domain is very valuable; with break-even at 5 years. Projected profits exceed USD $273 million over the project term.
The CPRSX Climate Change Action Plan™ is replicable. To this end, CPRSX formed an independent alliance and partnership with an entity that has commenced plans to replicate the CPRSX Climate Change Action Plan™ in Africa. That is because large scale reforestation and ecosystem restoration projects are commercially viable enterprises. They not only generate revenue streams, but also off-set land use change and carbon emissions. Emissions from deforestation and forest degradation account for more than 15% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. At the same time nearly 1.6 billion people depend on forests for food, water, shelter and energy. REDD+ forestry projects contribute to conserving biodiversity and combat climate change. Our REDD+ projects can deliver substantial socio economic benefits where they did not exist before..
