Brazil’s $125bn forest fund – framed as the “biggest thing to come out of COP30” – goes live tomorrow. Critics point out that TFFF “puts private investors first”, forest payouts last + sets a 🌳 bar too low to be “scientifically credible”. @yaninequiroz.bsky.social and I 🕵🏽‍♀️, for @carbonbrief.org.
