Rainforest Builder is restoring the Upper Guinean Forest. The Upper Guinean Forest is Africas most degraded forest landscape and one of the highest priority areas for reforestation globally, combining rapid carbon removal, exceptional native biodiversity and potential for socioeconomic impact. Our first four projects employ nearly 2,500 people. By applying the best of restoration science combined with commercial forestry best practices, we can bring back rainforests three times quicker than by natural regeneration alone. We deliver every stage of rainforest restoration: from developing carbon projects under the latest methodologies, to establishing Africa’s largest indigenous tree nurseries, to protecting the forests. Our projects - each spanning more than 100,000 hectares - will generate some of the highest-quality carbon credits available. We monitor our carbon, biodiversity, and social impact with precision, conservatism and integrity, and deliver long-term agricultural improvement and infrastructure investment for neighbouring communities. We invest in our projects for decades, and build forests to last for centuries.

Pantheon Regeneration scales nature-based solutions. We develop, finance, and manage projects that remove and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere while restoring ecosystems. Our first project, Pocosin Ecological Reserve I, is the first commercial peatland restoration effort in the United States. By rewetting and restoring 14,500 acres of pocosin peatlands, we are activating one of the world’s most carbon-dense and durable nature-based solutions.
