From YouTube: Colombia/Latam Acting on Offsetting Carbon Emissions - Ester Fonseca Silva - Selva (Track 2)
Description
Bringing info on “Offsetting carbon emissions” in Colombia and Latam countries. Reduction of emissions from deforestation and degradation. When, how and why to mitigate and reduce greenhouse gases that are released into the atmosphere. Also commenting on region-real problems, for example, one of the cases in which these emissions occur is when it is that a tree burns - but in Colombia, many communities have as their only source of income in this activity, which, in addition to deforestation, leads to the degradation of ecosystems.
How this contributes to local communities: Additional revenue from carbon credits closer to the ground could uplift the communities the projects originate from, hitting more than just the E (Environmental) in ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) and how their involvement through transparency hits the G (Governance)
Talk about regulations right now: Colombia is one of the countries that has advanced the most in its regulations of carbon markets, in the development of climate mitigation projects and has a mandatory market created in addition to the voluntary market.

A
Take
a
step
back
and
talk
about
climate
change
impact
in
Colombia
latan.
All
my
colleagues,
all
my
friends
here
have
been
talking
the
whole
day
about
carbon
Market.
How
Webby
tree
is
involved?
What
is
the
role
of
web
tree,
but
I
would
like
to
take
a
step
back
and
talk
about
latan
right
now
and
yeah.
So.
A
I
someone
told
told
already
today,
climate
change
is
something
that
is
not
in
the
future
is
happening
right
now
we
have
been
listing
about
climate
change,
since
it's
cool
and
I
was
I'll,
always
I.
Something
is
in
the
future,
but
it's
actually
something
that
is
impacting
our
lives
right
now.
So
this
was
last
year
in
Colombia.
Do
we
climate
change?
We
had
have
brains
that
destroyed
people,
homes,
people
had
to
leave
their
places
and
250
Colombian
people
died
last
year
and
200
was
injured.
Do
a
climate
change
impact.
A
It
made
people
die
and
lost
their
houses,
and
it's
something
that
is
increasing
this
year
as
well,
because
of
because
of
the
heavy
rain
caused
by
climate
change.
We
had
47.49
injured
people
in
Colombia,
18
000
families
was
affected,
so
everything
that
is
happening
right
now,
even
if
it's
not
impacting
our
lives
directly,
is
impacting
indirectly,
because
people
need
to
move
from
their
cities
and
the
whole
economical
situation
of
the
society.
A
Not
just
local
but
globally
is
affected,
and
climate
change
is
something
that
is
not
local,
even
if
you
don't
live
in
Colombia
or
if
you
don't
live
in
latan.
If
you
know
anyone
that
is
actually
passing
by
that,
we
need
to
understand
that
everything
that
is
happening
is
global
and
everything
like
the
the
nature
that
have
been
destroyed
doing
climate
change
is
also
a
powerful
tool.
That
is
an
is
a
nature
to
to
mitigate
climate
change.
So
this
was
recently
in
pantanau.
Pantanau
is
a
rich
Super,
Rich
biome
Chariot
by
Brazil
Bolivia
Paraguay
in
Argentina.
A
It's
super
rich
and
there
was
a
huge
fire
recently
because
of
climate
change.
There
was
a
hydro
meteorological
phenomenon
and
because
of
the
drought,
these
fires
started
and
burned
have
green
matter
so,
and
this
green
matter,
not
just
from
pantanal
fundamentals
and
from
the
forest,
is
a
nature
too.
We
have
to
uptake
the
carbon
gases
from
the
atmosphere
that
kills
this
climate
change.
A
This
is
some
projections
for
Colombia,
but
again
I'm
talking
about
Colombia,
because
you're
here
right
now,
but
this
is
happening
in
the
whole
world.
So
this
is
the
projections
we
have
two
degrees
increases
in
the
in
the
next
decade
and
this
is
suit.
This
first
image
is
a
suit
that
shows
that
Colombia
will
be
too
hard
to
believe
in
with
some
cities
in
Colombia
will
be
too
hot
to
believe
it,
and
this
other
image
is
a
suit
that
showed
the
precipitation
change
in
some
areas.
It
will
be
so
low.
A
The
agriculture
will
be
affected
will
affect
the
citizens
and
affect
the
economical
and
older
areas
is
opposite
the
precipitation
going
to
be
higher
and
causes
the
all
the
disaster
I
showed
before
this
is
okay.
So
what
is
this
happening?
Because
I
just
realized
it's
the
old
version
of
my
presentation,
but
sign.
So
what
is
happen
because
of
increase
of
population
industrialization,
our
behaviors
as
a
consumers,
and
what
actually
also
affects
the
behavior
of
the
industry
as
a
total,
we
are
increasing
emissions
of
greenhouses.
A
Gases
in
the
atmosphere
is
the
cars
we're
driving
the
way
the
industry
works
right
now,
the
deforestation
caused
it
by
crops.
So
a
lot
of
forests
are
putting
down
to
give
space
to
crops
or
to
Kettle,
and
it
increases
the
greenhouses
gases.
These
greenhouses,
they
trap
the
heat
on
the
surface,
the
atmosphere
that
causes
the
climate
change
and
causes
all
the
the
impacts
we
I
just
mentioned.
A
So
what
are
the
missions
in
latan?
Most
of
the
emissions
in
latan
are:
do
it
by
deforestation
and
burning
trees,
to
give
spaces
to
crops,
to
monocultures
and
and
in
Colombia,
specifically,
we
have
coca
production.
So
a
lot
of
forests
are
destroyed
to
give
you
space
to
these
crops
and
we
have
illegal
mining.
We
have
Forest
putting
down
to
give
space
to
cattle
and
one
of
one
data.
One
interesting
data
anyway,
is
that
latan
all
together,
the
the
whole
emission
of
Laton
in
2018,
was
actually
just
17
percent
of
China
alone.
A
A
So
what
must
be
done
so
we're
talking
we're
talking
the
whole
day
about
Cabo
Market,
but
carbon
markets
should
be
something
as
a
compliment.
The
basis
of
the
solution
should
be
reducing
emissions.
How
the
industry
can
change
the
way
they're
doing
things
right
now,
and
we
can
reduce
emissions,
the
industry
and
us
as
individuals.
A
The
older
basis
of
it
should
be
conservation
and
protection
of
the
areas
we
have
right
now
because,
as
I
mentioned,
Amazon
The
Forest,
the
mangroves,
all
the
natural
resources
or
natural
tools.
We
have
to
mitigate
climate
change
because
all
these
biomes
these
areas,
they
have
the
power,
the
natural
power
of
uptake
in
these
gases
from
the
atmosphere
and
reducing
the
impact
of
it
and
climate
change,
and
together
with
it,
we
have
the
carbon
markets.
That
is
a
way
that
companies
have
to,
besides
reducing
their
emissions,
to
contribute
with
projects.
A
There
are
taking
these
gases
from
the
atmosphere,
so
a
company
should
be
reducing
their
emissions
and
also
they
could
contribute
with
the
projects
they
are
I'll,
be
taking
these
gases
from
the
atmosphere.
I,
don't
know.
If
there's
someone
here,
that's
not
familiar
with
Cabo
Market,
it's!
Basically.
If
we
have
in
Colombia
someone
that
have
a
forest
and
they
are
protecting
it,
they
can
generate
carbon
credits
and
put
on
the
market
and
Industry
in
Japan,
like
automotive
industry.
They
can
get
these
carbon
credits
and
offset
their
footprint.
This
is
how
the
carbon
Market
works.
A
So
what
have
been
done
in
Colombia
to
reduce
emissions
to
offset
footprint?
We
have
changing
on
the
way
of
doing
agriculture.
So,
instead
of
putting
down
a
whole
Forest
to
establish
of
crops,
we
have
agroforest
where
you
can
have
production
of
crops
and
it's
you
have
trees,
so
you
can
have,
for
example,
the
plantation
of
cocoa
Plantation
of
coffee,
and
you
still
have
trees
there.
What
is
good
for
the
ecosystem,
it
is,
is
a
way
of
taking
this
gases
from
the
atmosphere.
A
It's
not
just
crops
and
trees
and
can
be
crops,
trees
and
cattle
and-
and
it
creates
not
just
it's-
not
just
a
good
tool
to
mitigate
climate
change,
but
it's
also
good
for
production.
A
lot
of
people
have
been
doing
this,
not
just
because
of
the
environment,
but
because
it's
actually
good
for
the
production.
B
A
That
yeah,
so
it's
actually
good
for
the
production,
even
with
the
cocoa
coffee.
When
you
have
trees,
there
you're
also
increasing
the
fertility
of
soil,
so
the
farmers,
the
people
that
have
land
they.
They
understand
that
it's
not
just
good
for
environment,
it's
good
for
their
own
business
to
have
these
systems
that
is
more
sustainable.
A
Carbon
Market,
sorry
for
the
the
slide,
actually
I
sent
a
new
one,
but
I
think
they
didn't
have
the
data,
but
so
carbo
marks
in
Colombia
is
actually
on
the
highlights.
There's
a
lot
of
potential
of
areas
that
are
being
protected
and
generating
carbon
credits,
and
the
idea
that
the
government
have
here
is
that
these
carbon
credits
can
generate
Revenue
to
the
community.
So
carbon
Market
could
be
something
that
are
not
just
contributing
to
the
environment,
but
it's
also
contributing
to
the
local
community.
A
A
So
how
what
are
the
gaps
right
now,
for
example,
in
carbon
Market,
is
the
lack
of
transparency?
It's
a
little
bit.
Shady
people
don't
understand.
Is
there
for
a
while,
but
still
like
people
don't
understand
how
it
works.
It's
not
Democratic.
It's
just
companies
are
the
ones
buying
this
carbon
credit.
So
what
web3
you're
trying
to
do
now
is
make
it
more
accessible
to
people.
So
not
just
companies
are
able
to
offset
footprint,
but
also
individuals.
Well
it
it
couldn't
be
done
in
web
2
in
the
traditional
markets.
A
Other
thing
that
the
webpage
is
trying
to
solve
is
to
give
more
transparency
and
the
whole
process.
So
with
the
blockchain
people
can
have
the
see
the
whole
transition
of
the
the
carbon
Market
is
still.
There
is
some
gaps
in
the
laboratory
as
well,
and
this
is
what
everyone
together
are
trying
to
resolve.
Like
all
the
discussions
here.
What
we
are
talking
outside
of
the
the
talk
says.
A
Oh
now,
we
solve
the
the
problem
of
when
we
uploading
the
data
to
the
blockchain,
how
we
can
reduce
lack
of
transparency,
so
this
is
still
a
gap.
We're
trying
to
solve
this
with
webatory
again
sorry
for
the
lack
of
the
information.
I.
Think
the
the
mistake
with
the
and
I
think
it
is
the
last
one
I'm
so
newbie
that
I
didn't
put
any
contact
information.
So
if
anyone
wants
to
connect
and
want
to
talk
about
it,
yeah
I
will
be
glad
to.
B
A
A
I
can't
I
can't
Okay,
so
are
you
recently
read
an
article
really
interesting
that
was
saying
that
some
green
areas
there
is
a
relation,
a
correlation
between
people,
destroying
green
areas
and
the
economical
power
of
the
seed
increasing,
but
also,
this
institute
shows
that
these
areas,
if
they
was
protected
with
the
carbon
credits
generated
and
in
the
market,
it
could
bring
economical
power
to
the
the
cities
as
well.
So
what
people
need
to
understand
is
that
there
is
this
potential
of
the
copper
Market.
A
Protecting
an
area
is,
is
the
potential
of
bringing
money
to
the
city.
So
if
people
understand
that,
if
they
protect
these
green
areas,
they
can
also
make
money
from
it
or
receive
some
revenue
of
doing
it.
People
will
be
more
protectful
of
the
of
the
green
areas,
because
in
latan
and
in
Colombia
what
happens
is
white
people
destroy
forests
and
green
areas?
It's
not
just
because
people
are
evil,
they're,
not
it's
just
because
people
is
the
way
they
make
the
living.
A
B
A
So
with
the
parks,
the
protection
of
the
parks
is,
it
should
be
our
governmental
like
a
city
issue,
they
should
be
aware
of
it
and
they
should
give
it
to
the
people.
They
are
destroying
these
areas,
an
alternative,
because
people
are
probably
destroying
it
to
you
by
to
to
create
to
build
their
houses
and
favelas
in
Brazil,
for
example,
the
favelas
were
constructed
in
forest,
they
just
did
it
there.
It's
actually
danger
to
them
when
it
rains
these
kind
of
things
happen,
and
they
do
it
not
just
because
they
want
to
destroy
things.
A
C
Yeah,
since
you're
from
carbon
Phi
and
there's
a
lot
of
carbon
projects
or
web3
carbon
projects
already
out
there
like
mustard
Earth
toucan
flow
carbon
Etc.
What
are
your
like
Focus
areas
like?
What
are
you
trying
to
do
different?
Are
you
engaging
in
origination
of
like?
Are
you
partnering
with,
for
example,
forestry
projects
or
what?
What
are
your
like.
A
So
what
carbon
5
does
is
given
access
to
individuals
to
offset
footprint,
that
is
not
people
are
not
able
to
do
in
traditional
markets
in
traditional
markets,
traditional
marks
are
complicated
and
just
companies
are
involved.
What
carbide
does
is
they
buy
carbon
credits
from
projects?
They
are?
Protecting
air
lands,
their
reforestation
projects,
they
buy
this
carbon
credits,
they
maintain
it
into
enfts
call
it
cnfts,
carbocrats,
nfts
and
individuals
can
buy
it.
A
They
can
buy
the
enfjs,
they
can
choose
the
project,
they
want
to
help,
they
can
buy
the
nft,
they
can
hold
it,
they
can
sell
later
or
they
can
just
mint
it
take
out
of
the
market.
Other
companies
malls
toucan.
They
have
an
exchange
as
well.
So
it
is
also
a
base
where
people
can
introduce
their
own
carbon
credits
and
people
can
buy
it.
Companies
can
buy
it.
A
There
is
a
project
in
in
Brazil,
I,
think
they're
just
telling,
but
they
what
they
are
doing
and
it's
not
just
buying
copper
credits
from
projects,
but
they
are
buying
Lanes
themselves.
They
are
doing
reforestation
themselves,
generating
the
common
credits
and
putting
on
the
market
to
people
to
offset
footprint.
Not
just
individuals,
but
companies
as
well
who's.
This.
