We’re catalyzing megaton-scale climate impact in Brazil
An organization has partnered with Terradot to implement methane elimination and permanent carbon removal across rice farms in Brazil. The goal is to achieve megaton-scale climate impact by 2030.
Why it matters
This project reduces immediate warming from methane while securing long-term carbon removal, while providing Brazilian rice farmers with lower input costs and improved soil health.
The big picture
This partnership scales the deployment of climate solutions in Brazil, where Terradot is already established.
The details
The agreement includes purchasing 1 million metric tons of permanent carbon removal by 2040. The project leverages Brazil's tropical soils and proximity to basalt quarries to accelerate rock weathering. This approach aligns with the portfolio strategy detailed in the organization's 2026 Environmental Report.
What's next
The organization is funding research to examine the methane-reducing potential of Alternate Wetting and Drying in different rice systems across the world.
