“We are working with a variety of funding resources throughout the forestry and carbon communities, including multilateral institutions, private funds, and programs,” Sempris added. “And there is considerable interest at the national level in what we are developing.”

 

“As more and more countries commit to reducing, sequestering, offsetting or avoiding their greenhouse gas emissions, said Redlus, “the more our collaboration with CATHALAC will realize its value.

 

“In time, what we believe will emerge from this effort will be the international standard by which nations can address the complex considerations of monetization of forest assets for their protection,” he said.
