Aichi Prefecture initiates sale of forest credits from public forests

Aichi Prefecture initiated the sale of forest credits derived from its public forests as part of the ‘Yahagi River and Toyokawa Carbon Neutral Project’. They utilized the J-Credit system for this purpose, having received applications for 287t-CO₂ against a sale volume of 200t-CO₂. The selected buyers will use these credits for carbon offsetting related to CO₂ emissions at local events and factories. Future sales of forest credits are planned for the next financial year.
