The Paraguayan Chaco forest covers 24 million hectares, and is particularly vulnerable— yet vitally important—in addressing the climate and biodiversity crises.
Quadriz, a participant in the United Nations Global Impact chapter Paraguay, recently delivered a presentation at the Environmental Table’s latest meeting.
Carbon markets are an important tool to help businesses mitigate their unavoidable carbon emissions. Now, a newly released report from the World Economic Forum offers corporates a playbook for their corporate climate action, including how to engage meaningfully with carbon offsetting.
New research reveals that companies that purchase carbon offsets do more to cut down their own internal greenhouse gas emissions that those who do not offset. The findings appear to contradict a series of bad press that recently dismissed carbon offsets as an ineffective tool for decarbonisation.
The race is on to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 43% by 2030. Overshooting this target would see the world exceed 1.5°C of global warming compared to pre-industrial levels and the most destructive climate impacts.
Investancia Paraguay S.A. has restarted the 30-day public comment period on its VCS+CCB ARR carbon project named 'Impact Reforestation in the Chaco Project"
The new Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity Initiative (VCMI) and its Claims Code of Practise includes a four-step process for corporates to make credible claims about their use of voluntary carbon offsets, as well as a labelling scheme to rank company climate credentials.
Investing in nature-based solutions (NbS) to limit global warming has the potential to drastically reduce greenhouse gases and provide myriad other benefits. NbS related to forests can provide 5 gigatons of CO2 emission reductions and removals every year that could be instrumental in keeping 1.5 degrees of warming within reach.
As the natural world approaches critical climate tipping points, research shows investor awareness of conservation finance opportunities is growing. Quadriz considers why and how private capital should be mobilised faster for greater financial and ecological returns.
Being featured in a Verra case study is a prestigious recognition of a project's commitment to environmental sustainability and community well-being. It highlights alignment with globally respected standards and showcases real-world climate action and positive impact.

Verra has commenced a 30-day public comment period for CCB Verification of the 2023 monitoring period on Quadriz’ REDD+ carbon project named ‘Corazón Verde del Chaco Project’. Comments are invited from the public.
Paraguay and Singapore marked a significant milestone in global climate action by finalising a bilateral Implementation Agreement under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
Quadriz, a leading developer of high-quality carbon offset projects in Paraguay, has been instrumental in shaping the country's carbon market framework, in concert with the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (MADES).
This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to occupational health and safety, ensuring a safe and secure working environment for all our employees. This milestone represents our dedication to continuous improvement in workplace safety standards.
To support the fight against climate change, corporate actors must navigate a growingly complex vernacular - with objectively far too many acronyms - as they plan their pathways to a low carbon economy.
From human-caused climate change and biodiversity loss, to warming oceans, desertification and the loss and degradation of entire forest ecosystems, there’s no doubt that the world is facing a convergence of global crises. Yet there is some good news.
