Reforesting the land of the Jaguar

This project aims to remove 1 million tonnes of CO2 every 20-year cycle, by reforesting +1 million trees of native hardwood species in 1,630 hectares of degraded and deforested land bordering the Laguna de Terminos nature reserve in southeast Mexico, while restoring the ecosystem and improving community livelihoods. The reforestation efforts not only contribute to climate change mitigation but also enhance biodiversity by providing habitat connectivity for wildlife, particularly jaguars. Through re-establishing forest corridors and strengthening jaguar habitats, the project supports species conservation on a landscape scale. Its replicable model blends innovation with traditional ecological knowledge, offering a scalable blueprint for restoration-driven community development across tropical regions.
