Rimba Raya
Biodiversity Reserve
A Conservation Project Designed To Provide, Preserve and Protect.
Rimba Raya (“Infinite Forest”) is located on the southern coast of Borneo and is InfiniteEARTH’s flagship conservation and biodiversity bank. The Reserve provides, preserves and protects 65,000 hectares of peat swamp forest, hundreds of at risk mammal species and providing community development programs for 9 villages.
Rimba Raya was the first:
- Validated REDD+ project – ever – under the Verified Carbon Stanrdard (VCS) and helped define the criteria by which all projects are measured.
- REDD+ forest-carbon project in the world to receive triple-gold validation under the Climate Community and Biodiversity Alliance Standard (CCBA).
InfiniteEARTH’s Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve achieved another major milestone in September 2020, becoming the first REDD+ project in the world to be audited for SDG (UN Sustainable Development Goal) compliance under the SD Vista Standard – achieving the highest possible rating of contributing to all 17 UN SDGs.
Our business is to protect and preserve this ecosystem — one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world.
By selling carbon credits based on the rich carbon stores of our reserve, we can provide offset solutions to customers in the devleoped world, protect our planet and its resources, provide refuge for endangered species living within and help contribute to local communities, their economy and the future of their children.
