Karbon-X Registers Senegal Blue Carbon Project with Verra

Karbon-X Corp. has announced the registration of its Senegal Blue Carbon Mangrove Project under Verra's Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) Standards. This 7,500-hectare initiative in Senegal's Sine Saloum Delta and Casamance Estuary is only the second globally to achieve registration under Verra's VM0033 methodology for tidal wetland and seagrass restoration.

The project aims to restore mangrove ecosystems through reforestation, potentially reducing emissions by approximately 2.2 million tonnes of CO2e over 40 years. This marks a significant development milestone for Karbon-X, reinforcing its strategy to build high-quality environmental assets.

Achieving this registration involved years of technical assessments, environmental studies, stakeholder engagement, and independent validation. The project now enters a phase of long-term implementation, monitoring, and verification.
