Ambassador Marco Lombardi has illustrated Italian projects against climate change in Tanzania and in particular the success story of the Italian company Carbonsink that, in cooperation with Carbon Tanzania, has a REDD+ project in Ufinza and Tanganika districts that, thanks to avoided deforestation, allows the issue of carbon credits that are sold to Italian and European companies. More than 150 thousand people living in the districts are partnering with Carbonsink. Lombardi underlined that these projects are in line with the Italian G20 Presidency priorities “People, Planet and Prosperity”. This event is also part of the V edition of the sustainable development festival promoted by the Italian Alliance for sustainable development (ASVIS).
