Investing in nature-based carbon projects can elevate your organization’s net-zero emissions goals from ambition to action, while delivering ecosystem benefits and socio-economic development. Watch our Amazonia Nativa project story and discover the impact we can make together.   In collaboration with FMO - Dutch entrepreneurial development bank, IFU, and Campo Capital S.A.S. we are starting the first phase in 2024 by planting a mix of native tree species on 550 ha of degraded pasturelands situated on the boarder of the Colombian Amazon. By completing the pilot phase, the following impact can be achieved over the lifetime of this project: 600,000 trees planted 250,000 tCO2e removed from the atmosphere 25,000 cubic meters of sustainable timber production through selective harvesting  250 tons of sustainable açaí berry harvested 40 permanent and temporary jobs created   Amazonia Nativa is about working with local communities on practical solutions for a long-lasting transition towards sustainable land use stewardship. Growing a vibrant forest cover that increases carbon sequestration capacity and land cover improvement, while generating income from multiple revenue streams, creates a solution for locals to move away from common practices.   With your commitment, we can accelerate local impact and drive expansion of the project to 20,000 ha and beyond.

We're thrilled to announce that Federico Di Credico, who led the previous EuroCham workshop on Carbon Pricing, will be running the Q&A session at EuroCham Singapore's upcoming webinar on the “Impact and Significance of the EU CBAM on Businesses in Singapore and Southeast Asia with DG TAXUD". In case you missed it, here's a summary of the valuable insights Federico shared during our first workshop: - Diverse Carbon Pricing Mechanisms: Governments are employing various carbon pricing strategies, including direct mechanisms like carbon taxes and cap-and-trade, as well as indirect methods like reducing fuel subsidies. - Integration with Carbon Credit Schemes: Many carbon pricing schemes are now linked to project-based crediting systems (carbon credits). For example, Singapore's carbon tax and China's emissions trading scheme enable corporates to use carbon credits for compliance. - Differences and Carbon Border Taxes: The variation in carbon pricing systems across different regions leads to discrepancies in the carbon prices paid by corporates. This has resulted in initiatives like the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) to address these differences. - Strategic Corporate Assessment: It's crucial for corporates to evaluate the carbon pricing schemes they are currently subject to or may encounter in the future. This comprehensive assessment helps in understanding the global risks and opportunities related to carbon pricing. Don't miss out on this opportunity to engage with Federico and gain deeper insights into sustainability and carbon pricing.
