ForestCalling is a startup focusing on reforestation programs in tropical areas, aiming to restore degraded forests and monetize carbon credits. Despite increasing awareness of the importance of trees, deforestation remains a critical issue, with tropical forests being the main victims. FAO (2020) reports that 10 million hectares of forests disappear annually, equivalent to approximately 2,400 trees being felled per minute. This rampant deforestation is responsible for 15 to 17% of global greenhouse gas emissions, contributing significantly to climate change.
Founded in Paris, ForestCalling is actively engaged in reforestation projects in various regions, including Madagascar, Africa (DRC, Ivory Coast, Tanzania, Nigeria), and Brazil. The company's ambitious goal is to restore 100,000 hectares of forest by 2030, focusing on human-scale projects that prioritize biodiversity conservation and positively impact local communities.
With a spotlight on finance and sustainability industries, ForestCalling aims to attract venture capital investments to support its initiatives. As a potential investment opportunity, the startup presents a compelling case for investors interested in environmental sustainability and carbon credit monetization.
