This blue carbon project is estimated to sequester 506,100 tCO2eq over the project's lifetime. Located within the vast Segara Anakan lagoon along Java Island's southern coast, the project area is threatened by unsustainable aquaculture practices and a lack of incentives to restore the mangrove ecosystem. The revitalization of the mangrove ecosystem is critical and closely linked to the communities' well-being, as they rely heavily on silvofishery for their livelihoods, which can only thrive in a healthy mangrove ecosystem.

Cilacap Blue Carbon: Java's First Community-Based Blue Carbon Project

Project area spans over 300,000 Ha of degraded lands and lowland secondary forest in 5 National Reserves in Laos. Project has signed MoU with the government of Laos and given green light to be developed as a carbon offset project. It will focus to protect 80,000 hectares of pristine forest that is under threat of illegal deforestation activities and simultaneously restore more than 9,000 hectares of degraded land near the Laos National Forest. The project is expected to avoid and sequester approximately 231,979 tons of CO2e per year through forest protection and restoration activities. Preserving the project area will provide essential ecological services, particularly benefiting the local community. More than 65,152 individuals are affected by this project as they heavily rely on the forest for their livelihoods.
