The work carried out by this project has revealed the carbon richness of the sediments in tidal marshes and seagrass meadows of the Bay of Cádiz, as well as in the Posidonia meadows of the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park. Thanks to the definition of these projects and the Andalusian blue carbon standard,Ìýcompanies will be able to offset their carbon emissions in the voluntary carbon marketÌýthrough these projects based on the conservation and restoration of coastal ecosystems in the European context for the first time.

Manual for the creation of Blue Carbon projects in Europe and the Mediterranean (2021)

This methodology and tools tested and developed in Andalusia are already pioneering bases to implement other blue carbon projects through the emission compensation markets within Europe.

Under the title "Blue carbon at the heart of a healthy climate", a workshop held last November in Malaga offered talks and round tables with representatives of public administrations of several region in SpainÌý(Andalusia, the Balearic Islands and Valencia), as well as research institutions (CSIC Blanes), the Spanish Climate Change Office, the Andalusian Climate Change Office and private companies,including Navantia, Cepsa, Red Eléctrica and Grupo Eulen. .

LIFE BLUE NATURA Ìý(LIFE14 CCM/ES/000957 - Andalusian blue carbon for climate change mitigation: quantification and valorisation mechanisms) is a European project, coordinated by the Regional Government of AndalusiaÌý*Consejería de Medio Ambiente y Ordenación del Territorio), in cooperation with the Agencia de Medio Ambiente y Agua de Andalucía (AMAYA), CSIC-CEAB, Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥-Med and Asociación Hombre y Territorio (HyT), with the participation of Fundación Cepsa.
