OUR PROCESS
Backed by trusted independent verification
We operate to robust standards and a rigorous oversight procedure with strong carbon credit accounting protocols, ensuring every carbon credit represents a genuine, measurable unit of reduced or removed emissions. Independent third party verification is crucial in holding all the projects in our portfolio accountable and maintaining market trust.
Inception
Developed collaboratively with local communities and indigenous groups, we target projects with ethical standards, community engagement, and reinvestment in social and environmental causes.
Quantify
The project potential per tonne of CO2 is assessed and quantified, then submitted along with the calculation methodology to a scientifically vetted team for certification and regulatory compliance approval.
Certify
Through strategic partnerships and close collaborations with leading carbon credit certifiers, governments, landowners, and community leaders, we ensure that each investment meets the most rigorous quality benchmarks.
Why we do it
We're backing large-scale carbon removal initiatives with robust governance structures.

Governance
At Carbon First we are dedicated to amplifying the needs and aspirations of the indigenous communities who call our forests home. We recognise the vital role these communities play in safeguarding these crucial ecosystems, and we understand the complex challenges they face.
Biodiversity and nature
Deforestation and climate change are interconnected and require a united approach. This is where carbon first is taking the lead. By protecting forests and reducing emissions we can break the cycle and build a more sustainable future. This is a call to defend the very lungs of our planet.
But planting trees alone is not enough, our actions should be holistic, we need to safeguard and protect the native species who play a vital role, after all their decline weakens the very ecosystem that sustains us. The local communities need empowerment to become stewards of their own biodiversity.
CURRENT PROJECT AGREEMENTS
Global scale, local ambition
We support projects globally that protect and regenerate forests and the communities that call them home. With over 750,000 hectares secured in Africa, we have ambitions to expand our impact worldwide. We have several projects in the pipeline, aiming to extend our reach and contribute significantly to global carbon reduction and sustainability efforts. Our goal is to establish a global presence, fostering environmental stewardship and community empowerment on a larger scale.
