In Brazil’s Pará state, the Amazon faces growing deforestation driven by agricultural expansion and land speculation. The ABC Norte REDD Project was developed to address these threats by preserving a large area of native forest and contributing to long-term climate stability and biodiversity protection in the Northeast Amazon.
This project uses REDD+ methodology to help prevent unplanned deforestation across over 140,000 hectares of Amazon rainforest. Located between Portel and Bagre in Pará, the project implements monitoring, land-use planning, and forest protection strategies to conserve native vegetation and promote responsible land management.
The project aims to reduce deforestation and its associated emissions while helping conserve Amazonian Biodiversity. It is estimated to avoid a predicted 82,994.27 ha of deforestation, equating to 30,138,794 tCO2e in emissions reductions over the 30 year project lifetime (13-September-2017 to 12-September-2047) with an annual average of 1,004,626 tCO2e By maintaining native forest cover, it attempts to support local climate regulation and ecosystem services. Additionally, it contributes to long-term conservation goals and seeks to strengthen land-use governance and environmental resilience in surrounding forest communities.
