When WLT protects an area of land, what precautions are taken to ensure that the destructive activities are not just displaced elsewhere?
WLT has extensive experience in buying and managing endangered land and our partnerships with local NGO organisations means that we are able to enlist the help of the local indigenous community with the protection and management of the land. All our carbon stock calculations factor in a mandatory reduction for leakage. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggest a 30-40% reduction in the total carbon stock and WLT always apply a 40% reduction unless there is satisfactory evidence to the contrary.
