A BREATH OF FRESH AIR
FOR CARBON & SUSTAINABILITY
Banco Internacional de Arboles(BIA) Capital conserves, restores, and develops significant landscapes to sustain people and nature and to produce strong returns on invested capital. We preserve the forest and its flora and fauna species to create progress.
Deforestation and forest degradation, through agricultural expansion, conversion to pastureland, infrastructure development, destructive logging, fires etc., account for nearly 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than the entire global transportation sector and second only to the energy sector. It is now clear that in order to constrain the impacts of climate change within limits that society will reasonably be able to tolerate, the global average temperatures must be stabilized within two degrees Celsius. This will be practically impossible to achieve without reducing emissions from the forest sector, in addition to other mitigation actions.
