People may be surprised just how many carbon projects are currently underway in the Gulf Savannah region, with about 15% (or 2,945,579 ha) of the Northern Gulf’s total area under existing approved projects. Carbon farmers are not paid to produce beef or grain, but to instead pull carbon out of the atmosphere and store it away (sequester it) in a stable form such as in trees.

Gulf Savannah NRM are helping increase awareness of carbon farming (or Emissions Reduction Fund projects) in their region.
