Verified carbon projects sit alongside reduction. They do not make a venue or event carbon neutral or net zero.
What the project does.
This innovative project seeks to regenerate carbon-sequestering forests across the Mississippi Alluvial Valley (MAV) by converting degraded agricultural lands into rich, biodiverse ecosystems. Using advanced afforestation and reforestation techniques, the project spans over 136,000 acres and includes a mosaic of hardwoods and fast-growing cottonwoods designed to restore native landscapes.
Land previously used for conventional agriculture is being transformed through site preparation, interplanting strategies, and long-term stewardship agreements with landowners. Trees are selected not only for their ecological resilience but also for their role in accelerating forest canopy development. By the time the fast-growing cottonwoods are phased out, robust native hardwood stands remain, supporting regional biodiversity and ecological health.
This large-scale carbon initiative is delivering measurable climate benefits with over 1.5 million tonnes of CO₂ removed in just two years. Through its 40-year commitment, the project exemplifies a sustainable model for land restoration and carbon finance in North America.
