The purpose of the small-scale A/R CDM project activity are: to earn carbon credits from growing of trees to be planted, under the CDM provisions of Kyoto Protocol; to help in mitigation of global warming by planting trees for sequestration of atmospheric
carbon dioxide; to improve the local environmental condition of soil through increasing the water holding capacity of the lands, increasing the humus in soil and also stabilizing the sand dunes, by converting the marginal and degraded croplands into forested lands; and to increase income, provide employment opportunities, and as a result to alleviate poverty of local communities.
