Predio Las Piedras

Project Description

Predio Las Piedras is a Restoration project in Acajete, Veracruz, Mexico that is run by a local community working to restore 34.52 hectares of degraded native pine-oak forest. The project, which began in May 2019 and has committed to a 100-year crediting period, aims to enhance forest carbon stocks by planting native pine species and implementing protective measures to enhance natural regeneration. These protective measures include training community members and building infrastructure to prevent forest fires and guard against illegal logging.

Risk of Potential Reversals

Nature-based projects like this one face some risk of reversal. During the life of the project, carbon storage may be affected by flood, fire, or logging. After the project’s end date, land use changes may also reduce carbon storage.
