Our mission
We carry out high-impact Nature-Based Solution (NBS) projects that reduce the global carbon footprint, improve biodiversity, promote a sustainable economy, and support our customers in their achievement of the sustainability goals.
Why we prioritise nature-based solutions (NBS)?
Natural terrestrial and oceanic ecosystems sustain life on Earth and are our main allies in the fight against climate change, acting as climate regulators and natural carbon sinks, removing more than half of annual anthropogenic GHG emissions.
Nature-based solutions involve applying effective strategies to address global challenges through the conservation, restoration, and sustainable management of ecosystems. By working with nature, we avoid the emissions derived from their degradation, contribute to additional carbon capture, increase their resilience against climate change and provide multiple benefits for biodiversity and people.
Confidence in CO2 volumes captured and fixed
Precise, scientifically proven quantification and measurement methodologies.
Mature technology
and high potential
These are solutions that are already available and tested to be implemented on a large scale. It is estimated that they can provide more than a third of the global mitigation efforts needed by 2030.
Monitoring and storage duration
Scientific and technological advances allow effective monitoring and management of the stability of the carbon sink, with mechanisms existing to prove its permanence.
Competitive solutions
Efficient and economical alternative to reduce and remove emissions compared to other costlier technological approaches which have not been proven at scale.
Core benefits
They provide multiple essential ecosystem benefits (biodiversity, water, etc.) and generate a multiplier effect in the economy (employment, local development, training, etc.).

Climate Ambition Summit.
December 2022.
Our commitments
With a global vision and a local approach, we develop long-term nature conservation, restoration and sustainable management projects with high climate, environmental and social impact
These generate high-quality carbon credits, available to be used by our clients to complement ambitious decarbonisation strategies aligned with science to neutralise residual emissions at net-zero or fund additional climate mitigation
>100 thousand hectares
to be covered by our projects
Mainly from forest ecosystems, but also coastal (blue carbon) and modified ecosystems (e.g. agricultural soils).
> 60 million tonnes of CO2
captured and stored in ecosystems
Through our projects, generating high-quality and, certified carbon credits that represent precise units of emissions avoided or removed.
Innovation
for sustainability
Initiatives to promote emerging solutions and sustainable production processes.
High impact
for nature and society
Maximising the contribution to improving biodiversity, the well-being of local communities and other Sustainable Development Goals.
Different conservation and restoration projects
- Reforestation, afforestation and revegetation
- Preventing deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+)
- Improved Forest Management.
- Blue carbon (coastal and marine ecosystems)
- Soil carbon and agricultural practices
- Innovative projects and techniques
High-impact projects
and high-quality credits
- Internationally and locally recognised carbon certification
- Traceability and continuous evaluation of its integrity
- Certification of contribution to biodiversity, local communities and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- Local communities’ engagement and support, tailored to their cultural context
