Puerto Valle is a carbon sequestration project through mixed reforestation with native and fast-growing species in the province of Corrientes, Argentina. It transforms a degraded area—historically used for extensive cattle ranching—into a plantation that will not be harvested. This maximizes CO₂ removals, which is our main strategic objective. At the same time, it aims to have a positive impact on biodiversity, local communities, and water bodies.
