Frequently Asked Questions

Carbonext is a pioneer in Brazil in the development of projects that prevent deforestation and promote the development of Amazonian communities. With over 13 years of experience in the market, we operate from three offices in São Paulo, Belém, and Piracicaba. Our team of experts designs and implements strategies that drive meaningful, positive transformations across climate, communities, and biodiversity. We offer services such as GHG emissions inventories, decarbonization strategy development, and the creation of REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), ARR (Afforestation, Reforestation, and Revegetation), and ALM (Agricultural Land Management) projects. Additionally, we develop customized technologies to help our clients calculate and offset their emissions quickly and accurately.

Carbon credits are certificates that represent the reduction or removal of one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO₂), or its equivalent in other greenhouse gases (GHGs), from the atmosphere. They were created as a market-based tool to support climate change mitigation, allowing companies and organizations to offset their emissions by investing in projects that reduce carbon output. These credits can be purchased by individuals, companies, or governments seeking to contribute to such initiatives. Each credit supports projects that prevent, reduce, or capture GHGs, encouraging actions that foster sustainability and environmental protection.

Carbonext supports your company in becoming more sustainable through a comprehensive approach that includes emissions inventories to identify major sources of GHGs and the development of tailored decarbonization strategies. Your company can also take part in environmental projects such as REDD+, ARR, and ALM, securing long-term contracts for acquiring carbon credits. We provide customized technologies for emissions calculation and offsetting, ensuring an efficient and activity-aligned journey toward reducing environmental impact.

Offsetting carbon emissions, when part of a broader decarbonization journey, offers numerous benefits, including reduced environmental impact, improved corporate image and reputation, compliance with environmental regulations, and increased appeal to sustainability-conscious investors and customers. Investing in conservation projects also contributes directly to climate change mitigation, creating positive impacts on both the environment and society.

Carbonext projects are designed to reduce and remove carbon emissions effectively. Our REDD+ projects aim to protect and restore forests, reducing deforestation and forest degradation while promoting sustainable development in local communities. ARR projects focus on tree planting and restoring degraded areas, while ALM projects implement sustainable agricultural practices. These projects generate carbon credits that individuals and companies can purchase as part of their environmental strategies.

REDD+ is a global initiative aimed at mitigating climate change by encouraging developing countries to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. It also includes the conservation of forest carbon stocks, sustainable forest management, and the enhancement of carbon stocks. REDD+ projects generate carbon credits that can be purchased by individuals and businesses as part of their environmental impact reduction strategies. These credits help finance forest protection and restoration, contributing to biodiversity conservation and the sustainable development of local communities.

Verra is an organization that develops and manages global certification standards for sustainability projects, including the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS). These standards are designed to ensure that carbon reduction and environmental conservation projects are robust, transparent, and verifiable, building trust and integrity in the carbon market.
