New Projects & Partnerships

Hello Friends of the Earth,?

This month, we recognized many ecosystems—World Peatland Day, World Environment Day, World Ocean Day, and World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought—and explored how good soil underpins them all. Boomitra’s work is focused on ensuring we have the rich, healthy soils necessary for a thriving, diverse planet.

In this edition, learn about Boomitra’s latest project in Mongolia, propelled by partnerships with the Mongolian Ministry of Environment and Tourism and Mitsubishi Corporation. Meet our Director of Carbon Projects, Chethan TR, and check out our feature on Google's Startup for Sustainable Development site.

Let's dig in!

The Largest Soil Carbon Compliance Project

Boomitra signed a landmark agreement with the Mongolian Ministry of Environment and Tourism to introduce regenerative agriculture and carbon finance to farmers and herders across Mongolia. Boomitra also signed an agreement with Mitsubishi Corporation to jointly conduct feasibility studies to develop a regenerative agriculture project in Mongolia under the Joint Crediting Mechanism of Japan.

The collaboration aims to introduce regenerative agriculture practices across 3 million acres in Mongolia, with the potential to reach 20 million acres by 2030. The project will initially remove an estimated 1.3 million tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere annually–making it one of the largest compliance projects in the world. Learn more!
