Ponterra, a developer and operator of large-scale biodiversity-rich forest restoration projects, has announced an agreement with Rubicon Carbon, Carbon Streaming (Cboe CA: NETZ), and Microsoft to deliver high-quality reforestation carbon credits from its ARC Restaura Azuero Project (ARC Project) in the Azuero Peninsula of Panama. The ARC Project is planned to involve planting over 6 million trees from over 75 native species to restore a tropical rain forest. The project is expected to issue 3.24 million tonnes of carbon removal credits over the 30-year contract.
