LONDON, May 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NOAH ReGen: A climate emergency is underway, and societies and economies are suffering, especially in coastal areas. Healthy coastal ecosystems provide protection from natural hazards, coastal erosion, and rising sead properly. Through Blue Carbon finance and decentralized certification by the World Ocean Council (WOC) with funding from NOAH ReGen and other partners, projects can be established that will boost ESG investment.

Key Points: 
  • Through Blue Carbon finance and decentralized certification by the World Ocean Council (WOC) with funding from NOAH ReGen and other partners, projects can be established that will boost ESG investment.
  • 'Blue carbon' sinks like mangrove forests, seagrass beds and subsoils, and other vegetated ocean habitats are up to five times as effective as tropical forests at sequestering carbon.
  • He says that by unlocking and monetizing stored Blue carbon, coastal communities can become the trailblazers of a regenerative Blue Economy that the OECD predicts will be worth $3 trillion by 2030.
  • Funds raised from projects will act as collateral to generate a cascade of ESG investment and carbon sequestration in developing countries, through the Blue Carbon Bank and the Blue Climate Fund currently under development, the ESG Carbon Token, a digital Marketplace and an ESG Carbon Exchange.
