Actually environmental care is part of the agenda of a large part of the actors of the international system, this caused an increase in the creation of policies and the emergence of economic proposals in response to the effects of environmental conflicts. The economy is a key concept in international agreements on the environment, and was established as the best and only tool to achieve sustainable development. Within the mechanisms of international agreements, the one that best represents the concept of economy is the carbon credit system (Sistema Bonos de Carbono(SBC))), which stems from the Kyoto Protocol and the Copenhagen Accord. This system comprises a series of financial instruments, created to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote development. REDD + projects (Reduction of emissions derived from deforestation and forest degradation) are one of the mechanisms developed by the UN within the SBC, where a financial value is established for the carbon stored in the forests. In this mechanism, incentives are offered so that the developing countries reduce and capture CO2 emissions and develop in a sustainable manner. The objective of this work is to know the implications of the concept of green economy, in the dependence of the communities that receive this type of projects. For this, the first REDD + project in Colombia will be taken as a case study, it is located in the department of Choco, where a community organized under COCOMASUR (Consejo Comunitario de Comunidades Negras de la Cuenca del Rio tolo y Zona Costera Sur), established the project: Corredor de Conservacion Choco-Darien (CCCD) of REDD + in 2010. Through the use of Jaques Derrida deconstruction techniques, discourse analysis and evaluation of the project's objectives, we will evaluate the implications of the concept in the dependence of the community, giving as a result that there is no dependency of the individuals of the community to the project, and although the broad objectives of the project are not successfully fulfilled, the community manages to develop alternative livelihood tools such as ecotourism.
