Community Climate Solutions Zambia

Community Climate Solutions Zambia is an organization focused on developing holistic, trusted carbon offset projects that benefit the climate and rural subsistence farmers. The company operates by empowering farmers to reduce and remove carbon emissions from their land. This model centers on reducing uncontrolled bush fires and restoring the Miombo ecosystem. Community Climate Solutions Zambia monetizes resulting carbon storage on the voluntary carbon market, paying farmers directly for the carbon they remove. Their projects are situated within an integrated ecosystem that includes vocational education, microfinance, and affordable housing. The organization is scaling its agroforestry and reforestation footprint across Zambia, with a focus on planting millions of seedlings annually in partnership with smallholder farming communities.
