The great climate solution: The amazon rainforest and carbon market

A report by Earth Innovation Institute states that the Amazon Forest Climate Solution (AFCS) offers a near-term pathway to global climate impact, potentially achieving 1.5 GtCO₂e in reductions by 2030, double the EU target. Brazil’s jurisdictional REDD+ (JREDD+) programs are central to this, generating credits tied to state-wide performance, not isolated projects. The report highlights regulatory clarity, Article 6 integration, and partnerships (e.g. with China) as critical to scaling. JREDD+ could yield $10–20B in revenue and support inclusive forest economies.
