JatroGreen Madagascar SDG Jatropha Project
Gold Standard · GS12682 · Madagascar
About this project
The idea of the proposed carbon project is to establish a Jatropha plantation on 2,000 hectares of wasteland by 2029, with the potential to expand the plantation to 3,000 hectares in the future. The Jatropha plantation has the potential to sequester approximately 252,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent, with a crediting period of 30 years. The aim is to generate both direct and indirect employment, as well as provide sustainable and affordable energy sources for local communities, while also combating land degradation and desertification, thereby contributing to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
