The carbon credit pipeline is broken.
(Too many middlemen.)
Nonprofits & governments plant trees but don’t track or cultivate them.
Researchers know how to grow trees but their projects don’t scale and they paywall findings.
Validating carbon sequestration is expensive and overly technical.
Certifying bodies are slow, complicated, and take money from growers.
Brokers add no value to the market but take >30% of margins and drive up the prices with speculation
Regulators consistently fail to give clear standards due to lobbying, political agendas, and private interests.
It’s driving the prices up.
Bloomberg predicts 3,000x price increase by 2030.
Certified carbon credit pricing
But…
We can fix it.
Savimbo is different.
No middlemen.
We pay farmers directly for sequestering carbon on land they own.
Our researchers donate their time to teach farmers silviculture in their language so they can earn more.
We use better technology and train farmers in it to improve and automate tracking.
We work directly with certification bodies, and our automated data makes this process faster and less expensive.
We sell our own credits to drive out speculation and brokers. Our farmers get those fees instead.
We make higher-quality projects to withstand changes as standards tighten, which also means our credits are higher value.
