About the Carbon Capture Program™

AACL offers farmers the ability to participate in Carbon Conscious’s Carbon Capture Program™. Farmers participate by providing land to be used to plant native mallee eucalypt trees in order to capture and store carbon from the atmosphere.
 
The Carbon Capture Program™ provides clear benefits to agricultural landholders by attracting investment from investors and carbon emitters and enabling farmers to participate in the rapidly developing carbon market in Australia.

About Carbon Conscious

Carbon Conscious listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in May 2008 (ASX code: CCF) and is a related party to AACL.
 
Carbon Conscious has been established in order to participate in the emerging carbon credit markets by using AACL’s relationships with broadacre farmers and land to plant native
mallee eucalypt trees. Carbon Conscious’s “Carbon Capture Program™” aims to plant mallee trees which in turn capture and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow. Over time, a significant amount of carbon is expected to be stored by the mallees which will be measured by Carbon Conscious and sold as a carbon credit on a carbon exchange (which will operate much like a stock exchange).
 
All trees capture and store carbon, however the mallee tree has been selected by Carbon Conscious due to its suitability to Australia’s low rainfall climate. In addition, the mallee is generally a long lived specie and has the capacity to regenerate after fire. There are also significant environmental benefits to farmers by planting mallees, including the potential to reduce the impacts of salinity.
 
Carbon Conscious aims to attract significant investment from large scale polluters and emitters of carbon (such as power companies) who will pay to plant the mallees on suitable broadacre land provided by farmers. Various options are available to farmers in order to participate and benefit from the Carbon Capture Program.
