Carbon Streaming intends to build a high quality and diversified portfolio of carbon credit streams and investments
that offers investors exposure to the carbon markets as the world transitions to a net-zero carbon future.

How Streaming Credits Will Work Example of a Stream Agreement

Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve Project
Reduces and avoids GHG emissions by limiting deforestation of ~65,000 ha of tropical lowland peat
swamp forests and preventing their conversion to palm oil plantations.
Operating for over a decade, Rimba Raya reduces emissions by around 3.5 Mt CO 2e per year.

Project area has over 600 species of flora and fauna and 100 local animal species currently listed on the IUCN’s
Red List of Threatened Species, including the Bornean Orangutan.
Programs have been developed to improve quality of life for local communities, such as water filtration
systems, floating healthcare facilities, educational scholarships, and solar energy.
A portion of the revenue generated from the sale of carbon credits will go directly to the Rimba Raya Project to
continue to support local community development and infrastructure.

MarVivo
Blue Carbon
Project
Located in the Cerrado biome, the second largest biome in Brazil and considered one of the most
biodiverse savannah regions in the world.
Since 1985, the Cerrado biome has lost 46.8% of its native vegetation to commercial agriculture.
Ecosystem Regeneration Associates (ERA) is developing the project as a REDD+ grouped project.
The Cerrado Biome Project currently consists of two parcels of land covering ~11,000 ha.
ERA plans to scale up the project by offering landholders with surplus native vegetation an
alternative to agriculture - receive sustainable revenue through the generation of carbon credits.
Carbon Streaming expects the project to generate an average of ~0.5 million carbon credits per
year over 30 years, with initial generation of ~0.1 million carbon credits per year.
Verification of the Project by Verra is expected in late 2021, with credit sales to begin in 2022.
Portion of revenue from carbon credit sales will be re-invested locally to preserve the unique
biodiversity of the region and support local communities by providing environmental education
and development of professional skills.

Two Types of Carbon Markets
Markets for carbon credits created by the need to Corporations, governments and individuals volunteer

(carbon allowances) (carbon credits, also referred to as offsets)
• Also referred to as cap-and-trade programs. • Generated by projects that avoid, reduce or remove GHG
emissions beyond a business-as-usual scenario.
• The ‘cap’ on GHG emissions declines annually to achieve the
climate policy targets of its jurisdiction or members. • Projects include reforestation, improved forest management,
wetland restoration and renewable energy.
• Allowances are freely allocated or auctioned to companies
which can then ‘trade’ allowances to comply with the cap on • Traded by individuals and companies on the voluntary markets

compliance markets).
• Companies with low emissions can sell their extra
allowances to larger emitters. • Majority of projects follow rules established by independent
standards organizations.

• Verification is carried out in accordance to independent standards, such as Verra’s Verified
Carbon Standard (VCS) or the Gold Standard, which together accredit about 80% of the carbon
credits in the voluntary markets.
• Carbon credits can also have co-benefits, such as job creation, water conservation, flood
prevention and preservation of biodiversity.
• CORSIA is a program to limit GHG emissions from international travel with airlines from
participating countries required to purchase carbon credits to offset emissions in excess of a
baseline. The voluntary pilot phase of CORSIA started this year. Renewable Energy Methane Capture

The Taskforce on Scaling Voluntary Carbon Markets estimates that demand for carbon credits in the voluntary market could grow by
15-fold by 2030 and up to 100-fold by 2050.
