One mechanism to mitigate the negative impacts of deforestation is the implementation of the Brazilian Forest Code. This required landowners to reforest or maintain at least 20% Atlantic Forest cover as well as identify them as Areas of Permanent Protection (APP) within their properties, meaning that they will not be able to cut down any trees or modify them ecologically in any way after they become official APPs. Planting in permanent preservation areas (APPs) perform several functions, including: protection of waterway banks, avoiding water pollution and silting, maintenance of soil permeability and regulation of the water regime, contributing to the recharge of aquifers, improving the water flow of springs, avoiding compromising water quality and quantity, and ecological corridors that facilitate the gene flow of fauna and flora. In addition to the Permanent Preservation Areas, degraded sites in Legal Reserves (RL) are also part of the project, which are important, for example, for the connectivity of forest fragments within several APPs.

All restoration areas play a fundamental role in increasing ecosystem biodiversity, improving soil quality and reducing atmospheric carbon. Studies show that through the methodologies to be used, 1 ha of native forest absorbs approximately 322 tons of carbon, which also makes reforestation essential for reducing global warming.

This project aims to increase the biodiversity and forest health of a certain region by training and providing tools for local teams to collect their own seeds, supply projects, and become "forest multipliers". Teams will be trained to collect and store their own sustainable seed and then distribute them to their local community. This will help create a strong local network of farmers and landowners, and empower them to take ownership of their land and resources. Additionally, the planting partner is working with local communities to ensure the success of the project through active engagement. This will involve creating an interactive platform where stakeholders can exchange information, share ideas, and develop strategies to increase tree and plant diversity. By increasing local access to seeds, the project will help to increase the overall health of the forest, create a more resilient ecosystem, and reduce the environmental impact of deforestation.
