Background Community Climate Solutions
Community Climate Solutions is a start-up focused on developing holistic and trusted carbon offset projects that benefit both the climate as well as the rural subsistence farmers. Headquartered in Zug and Lusaka, we have a team of over 30 people and are growing rapidly, with the majority of staff permanently residing in and serving over 100’000 farmers in Zambia.
Our carbon capture model is to empower farmers to reduce and remove carbon emissions from their own agricultural land and its surroundings. Our interventions are centered on (i) reducing anthropogenic bush fires by paying local farmers for cutting of the moribund grass, building community cattle herds to graze, and financially incentivizing non-burn, (ii) restoring the ecosystem by protecting existing trees and the natural regrowth, combined with replanting where necessary, and (iii) encouraging climate-smart agricultural practices. This removes carbon through the soil health and biomass growth, which we monetize for the benefit of the communities using the voluntary carbon market. We additionally differentiate ourselves by focusing on direct household payment, with farmers getting paid for the amount of carbon they remove on their own fields and surrounding areas, enabling them to become self-motivated eCO2preneurs.
