    How and when does the community benefit from carbon credits?

    Initially employment from the up-front investment. Exact starting point unknown - depends on the tree growth - but years 5-8 we will have paid the investor back and money can begin to flow into the community investment fund. The investment fund sits MAIS and the community and we collectively decide on how best to invest the funds
