Carbon Sequestration

The Conservation Fund offers the nation’s leading carbon sequestration program using reforestation to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, generating carbon credits and strengthening community relations for partners. Through its Carbon Sequestration Program, the Fund provides participating companies with an effective strategy for addressing climate change, as well as other environmental concerns such as the loss of wildlife habitat and declining water quality. From site identification and land acquisition to restoration and management, the Fund provides a comprehensive and cost-effective program to offset carbon emissions.

DEMONSTRATED SUCCESS

A market leader in carbon sequestration, the Fund has restored 20,000 acres and planted 6 million trees which will capture an estimated 8 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from the atmosphere over their lifetime.
