Scaling Forest Protection: ERS, Equitable Earth, and the Future of REDD+ - Thibault Sorret

Scaling Forest Protection: ERS, Equitable Earth, and the Future of REDD+ - Thibault Sorret

In this episode, Thibault Sorret, CEO of ERS (Ecosystem Restoration Standard), joins us just days after some major developments:

🌳 ERS has acquired Equitable Earth, a REDD+ forest conservation standard built by a coalition including Wildlife Works, Forest Trends, and Everland.


✅ The ERS Programme has been officially approved under the ICVCM’s Core Carbon Principles, marking a major milestone in quality and credibility for nature-based carbon.

Thibault reflects on how a recent site visit to a REDD+ project changed his view of conservation — not just as a carbon accounting exercise, but as real, visible frontline climate work. From active ranger patrols to agroforestry programs, he describes what it looks like when these projects truly work — and why scaling them is urgent.

🎙️ In this episode:

  • What made Equitable Earth the right fit for ERS

  • How to bridge the credibility gap in REDD+

  • Why consolidation (not fragmentation) is what carbon markets need

  • And how conservation and restoration can — and must — scale together

If you're wondering what high-integrity conservation looks like in practice — and how the carbon market can better support it — this is the conversation.
