“The forest is using a United Nations greenhouse emission compliant harvest process that generates carbon credits. Broadly speaking, only trees that are old and not capturing CO2 are cut down, which are then replaced with 5 young trees creating a net positive effect on the environment. When trees are old, typically 120 years and older, they stop capturing harmful emissions and start producing methane gas that harms the environment. Cutting them down and planting new trees in its place has the net effect of removing harmful emissions from the environment.  While this is an oversimplified explanation of this process, it is important to note that carbon credits are generated each year and are available for sale. The process used for this forest has been submitted to the UNFCCC and we are about 6-months away from receiving 78 Million Metric Tons (MT) of CDM Afforestation/ Reforestation carbon credits, 7.8 Million per year for 10-years.
