It's JUST Climate change
"Empowering Communities, Restoring Ecosystems, and Combating Climate Change"
High Integrity Carbon Credits for individuals, businesses + investors
Creating carbon assets managed by communities in East Africa
Many ‘plant a tree’ carbon credit schemes require communities to forfeit their land rights for Climate Change.
Our approach is to work with communities to maximise their incomes from carbon. The right mix of trees provide shade, fruit , fodder, charcoal and medicines. Managed as village assets trees allow indigenous populations to thrive in their homelands, develop a regenerative sustainable growth economy and repair generations of damage.
Green Action Biochar Carbon Credits lock up carbon and improve health.
Locking up carbon
Improving Health
Biochar stoves are a game-changer for communities, offering a multitude of benefits. These stoves produce significantly fewer harmful emissions like carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and fine particles, reducing respiratory issues and improving overall health, especially among women and girls.
Biochar can enrich soil, enhance crop yields, and promote sustainable farming practices.
Leading to employment of women and young people
This not only provides them with a source of income but also empowers them through meaningful work that contributes to environmental conservation and community development.
- Training and Education: Programs to teach biochar production and use can empower women and youth with new skills.
- Entrepreneurship Opportunities: Selling biochar or biochar stoves can become a source of income, fostering local businesses.
- Agricultural Productivity: Improved soil health from biochar use boosts crop yields, which can lead to more job opportunities in farming and related industries.
- Community Projects: Organised biochar production projects can provide stable employment and promote community cohesion.
Green Action biochar carbon credits aren’t just a tool for environmental sustainability. They're also a catalyst for social and economic development.
