Natural climate solutions help capture and store carbon.

Let's do more of it.

We provide consulting services for organizations and businesses working to advance natural climate solutions.

Conserving and restoring grasslands and forests are key to achieving climate goals.

Plants and trees have a superpower – photosynthesis – that enable them to pull carbon dioxide from the air and store it in soils.

Research shows that natural climate solutions (conserving, restoring and improving land management) can mitigate 21% of net U.S. emissions, an amount equal to all pollution from all cars and light duty trucks in the U.S. They provide co-benefits like clean air and water, soil health and fertility, flood storage and wildlife habitat.
