The Carbon Fund

The FCPF Carbon Fund became fully operational in May 2011.

The Carbon Fund will provide performance-based payments to about five countries that have made significant progress in their REDD+ readiness endeavors.  Such performance-based payments will play an essential part in valuing forests more while they are standing than when they are cut.
