FOREST-based carbon projects that avoid emissions from deforestation are an increasingly important part of Malaysia’s climate and environmental protection strategy. This aligns with growing international demand for carbon credits from high quality, avoided-emissions projects. However, disinformation from those ideologically opposed to market-based climate solutions risks making the climate and environment crises much worse.
Deforestation around the globe is a major cause of greenhouse gas emissions, but when conservation projects are designed well, they not only deliver climate benefits but also drive inward investment into social development and biodiversity protection.
