 Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and climate systems, largely driven by human activities such as deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels. These changes increase climate risks for ecosystems, communities, and economies worldwide.

 A carbon footprint measures the total greenhouse gas emissions generated directly or indirectly by an individual, organization, or activity, usually expressed in tons of CO₂ equivalent.

 The Paris Agreement is a global climate treaty adopted by nearly all countries to limit global warming to well below 2°C, while promoting climate resilience and low-emission development pathways.

 A REDD+ project aims to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation while promoting forest conservation, sustainable management, and the enhancement of forest carbon stocks, with strong social and environmental safeguards

A carbon credit represents one metric ton of CO₂ equivalent that has been reduced, avoided, or removed from the atmosphere through a verified climate project.

Forests store large amounts of carbon. Protecting them prevents emissions caused by deforestation and degradation, while maintaining their role as natural carbon sinks.
