In this beautifully shot video, the Brazilian pulp and paper industry seeks acknowledgement in the Kyoto Protocol for carbon credits originated by planted forests. Planted forests cultivated by this industry in Brazil annually absorb 64 million tons of CO2 , while manufacturing processes are responsible for the emission of 21 million tons of CO2. It is certainly an expressive contribution for the climate. Brazil is one of the few countries worldwide in which 100% of the pulp and paper production comes from planted forests, natural sources of renewable raw material.
