Project description

The REDD+ Carbon Credit Harvesting Group Project, located in central DRC, Africa, will protect approximately 6,793,190 hectares of forest from industrial logging, unsustainable fuel wood extraction and slash and burn agriculture. The project is developed and managed in a joint venture by forest carbon leaders GEC Communities II, Inc. as General Partner to R.E.D.D. Carbon Credit Harvesting LP (“GEC-C”) and Global Treat Corporation (GTC). The methodology used for this project will be VM0009 ‘Methodology for Avoided Deforestation’ v3.0, originally validated with VCS in January, 2011 (Version 1.0) with the revised version (version 3.0) receiving validation from VCS in June, 2014. The project is estimated to deliver over 4.3 billion tCO2-e over 30 years and an average of 141.2 million tCO2e per year.
