1. Can all forest land be developed into forestry carbon sequestration projects? What are the requirements for forest land for forestry carbon sequestration development?
A: Not all forest land can be developed for forestry carbon sequestration projects. Only forest land that meets the methodological requirements can participate in the development of forestry carbon sequestration projects. The development of the project shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant regulations and methodology, and shall be filed by the state, and the carbon sink generated can enter the carbon market for trading. The development of forestry carbon sequestration projects must also meet the following conditions:
Forestry carbon sequestration projects implemented after February 16, but the Interim Measures for the Administration of Voluntary Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Trading are currently being revised, and the revised provisions shall prevail.
2. It does not belong to wetlands or organic soils.
3. Carbon sequestration afforestation (including bamboo afforestation) projects must be afforestation projects implemented on non-forested land, and afforestation on logging sites and burned lands cannot be included in carbon sequestration afforestation projects. The forest management carbon sequestration project must be a planted forest.
4. The project is additional. A situation where the project carbon sink is higher than the baseline carbon sink through the implementation of a carbon sink project, and this additional carbon sink would not have been generated without the proposed forestry carbon sink project activity.
2. What are the methodologies of forestry carbon sequestration projects?
Answer: The relevant methodologies of forestry carbon sequestration projects suitable for our province mainly include:
Carbon Sequestration Afforestation Project Methodology
Methodology of Bamboo Afforestation Carbon Sequestration Project
Methodology of forest management carbon sequestration project
Methodology of Bamboo Management Carbon Sequestration Project
