Description
Blue Carbon: Nature-Based Carbon Capture and Storage – Coastal ecosystems host important bio-systems and ecosystems worldwide, including at-risk Wetlands and Mangroves; being simultaneously some of the most economically relevant and vulnerable ecosystems on Earth. These Coastal ecosystems, such as salt marshes, seagrass meadows, and mangrove forests, provide fundamental Ecosystem Services. Coastal ecosystems provide a unique natural landscape, enhance biodiversity, support commercial fisheries, protect coastal regions against erosion and storms, provide ecotourism revenues, and act as efficient natural carbon sinks, helping to offset CO2 emissions and fight climate change.
With 10 SDG’s these Blue Carbon credits are highly efficient at capturing and storing carbon dioxide CO2 from the atmosphere. They sequester carbon at rates that can be several times higher than terrestrial forests. By protecting and restoring these ecosystems, we can effectively reduce the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, which is crucial for mitigating climate change. The Italian “Valle Paleazza” project is a temperate H.C.W. (human-controlled wetland) area. Since 2010 many organizations have been involved in projects to generate “Blue Carbon” from these temperate areas and provide a means to conserve and restore coastal ecosystems, sequester carbon, support biodiversity, protect coastal communities, and offer economic benefits, all while contributing to global climate change mitigation efforts.
