Centering People at the Heart of Nature-Based Carbon Projects
Countries and companies are indeed looking to restore forests and other ecosystems to offset carbon output.

Typically, third-party developers put these projects together for implementation by local communities on the ground. It's time, say experts, to make these local communities full partners.
