Working to safeguard important Choco forest in the Río Canandé Reserve, head ranger Galo provides data for the Carbon Balanced programme by the World Land Trust.
Galo is a strong believer in the benefits of Carbon Balanced, which enables people to offset their unavoidable emissions while protecting biodiversity-rich habitats, and he is enthusiastic about engaging local communities.
Galo said: “There should be more opportunities given for local people to contribute to conservation, for example through reforestation campaigns.”
