New research published in the journal Nature validates forests as an absolutely critical climate solution, which must be protected and restored if there is to be any chance of reaching global climate mitigation ambitions, and staying within 1.5 degrees of global warming.
Verra has commenced a 30-day public comment period for CCB Verification of the 2022 monitoring period on Quadriz’ REDD+ carbon project named ‘Corazón Verde del Chaco Project’. Comments are invited from the public.
The forest of the Paraguayan Chaco, like the neighbouring Amazon, is a haven for animals that face extinction if the forest is not kept in tact. Today, the Paraguayan Chaco is losing its forest cover, due to land use change, faster than most places on earth.

Nature-based solutions are essential in the fight to tackle climate change. Ensuring combined efforts and involvement from private and public sector in Nature-Based Solutions could amount to significant development in the fight against climate change.
While deforestation in Latin America has typically been focused on the rapid destruction of the Amazon, the second largest forest in South America, the Gran Chaco, stretched between Paraguay, Argentina and Bolivia, ranks as the number one deforestation hotspot on earth. Climate change and its effects is greatly linked to the loss of biodiversity and the rapid destruction of these forests.
The notion of environmental governance, where private and public sectors get involved on several levels, assists to the importance of scalability of REDD+ programs.
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.
The Paraguayan Chaco forest covers 24 million hectares, and is particularly vulnerable— yet vitally important—in addressing the climate and biodiversity crises.

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.
