Carbon & Forestry

Forests regulate the climate through CO2 absorption, provide us with the air we breathe, and protect the Earth’s rich biodiversity. Despite being central to our existence, global forest cover has dramatically decreased over the last century.

Utilising decades of financial and environmental expertise, BwB works with both public and private sector actors across the world, to develop financial structures and facilities that protect and expand the world’s forests. Public financing alone is not capable of achieving the level of change that is required; a big part of BwB’s work in this sector focuses on incentives and structures which make forest conservation and regrowth financially appealing to private investors.
