To date, OFP has successfully integrated 80+ forest projects spanning six continents into its ecosystem. These projects benefit from cutting-edge digital MRV tools for comprehensive forest plot management. Many of these initiatives are owned and operated by local and indigenous communities, facilitated via financing through OFP’s transparent, blockchain-based protocol.

Traditionally, associated costs and time constraints have imposed a considerable challenge for smaller community projects seeking to implement carbon financing or data verification systems into operations, but with OFP’s innovative tools, anyone can access the global market. Beyond the broad goal of sustainable development, many communities benefit from carbon financing as an important source of income too.

Helping to conserve 650 million trees in the Amazon rainforest to date, Moss leverages the power of blockchain and climate education to increase carbon market trust participation. Moss then verifies this impact through a combination of satellite imagery, machine learning, and big data.

Through this technology, Moss is able to work to ensure accessibility so that eventually any community is able to develop and manage their own carbon offetting projects.
