Google Deepens Amazon Reforestation Investment for Carbon Credits

Google Deepens Amazon Reforestation Investment for Carbon Credits

Imagine big companies like Google need to clean up the air they pollute from running their computers.

They are paying a company in Brazil called Mombak to plant trees in the Amazon rainforest.

Planting trees is a natural way to clean the air because trees breathe in carbon dioxide.

Google's new deal is much bigger than before and will help restore damaged parts of the forest.

They want to make sure the trees they plant are truly helping and not just pretend.

Google is working with other big companies to set high standards for these tree-planting projects.

Because these projects are so good and needed, they cost more money, but there are more companies wanting to buy them than there are trees being planted.
