Goal
While removing the excess carbon from the atmosphere is our focus, we also support regional carbon removal projects that have the potential to scale, while providing social and economic co-benefits.
The Climate Restoration Fund is proud to support the Togo Bamboo Project, developed by the Climate Restoration Network, in partnership with multiple Togo stakeholders, including the Togolese Government.
Bamboo is known for its rapid growth rate and high carbon sequestration ability.
The Togo Bamboo Project aims to create a thriving and sustainable non-invasive Bamboo cultivation & industry on 10,000 hectares in the Northern region of Togo, near Tandjouare.
This project clarifies that the brand of Climate Restoration goes beyond just the atmosphere. We recommend that all climate action be branded as Climate Restoration, since Climate Restoration is focused on the goal of giving our children a livable planet and everyone can participate.
Beyond direct employment, the project will engage with local communities to ensure their involvement and benefit. This will include educational programs on environmental stewardship, sustainable farming practices, and the benefits of bamboo in soil conservation and reforestation.
We need your help to raise an additional $25,000 (with a $25,000 generous matching from individual donors) to send a delegation of professionals to Togo, meet with the local stakeholders (including community leaders and government officials), and start the feasibility study for the project.
