At Cotierra, we are developing a more transparent carbon reduction solution for the coffee supply chain with additional social impact in rural communities in the Global South. We provide the coffee supply chain with the tools to decarbonize their agricultural supply chains. We remove and reduce their agricultural emissions by more than 40%. We help them and their farmers with the decentralized production of vegetable charcoal from agricultural waste directly on the farm. By incorporating the plant carbon into the soil, we reduce fertilizer costs and emissions for our customers. This is made possible by two factors:
In this way, we achieve cost-effective, fully transparent and permanent carbon removal and emissions reduction with high social benefits.
