The American Forest Foundation (AFF) has announced a 15-year agreement with Netflix to purchase verified carbon credits through AFF’s Fields & Forests program—an initiative aimed at converting underused fields into productive forests across the U.S. South. Launched to support family landowners and combat climate change through afforestation, reforestation, and revegetation (ARR), the Fields & Forests project received a significant boost from Netflix’s early-stage financing. This investment will help launch the first 6,000 acres of reforestation and expand access to underserved landowners across the region. …The streaming giant utilized a unique financing structure—milestone prepayments—tying funding to tangible achievements like acres enrolled. This allows AFF to offer robust technical and financial support to small-acreage landowners, many of whom face barriers to participating in the voluntary carbon market due to high upfront costs.
