What is carbon removal?
Carbon removal captures carbon dioxide that is already in the atmosphere and stores it in trees, soils, coastal ecosystems or durable materials such as biochar. Ecologi supports assessed removal projects designed to deliver measurable climate impact alongside benefits for nature and communities.

The benefits of carbon removal
Carbon removal can support climate action while creating additional benefits for nature and people.
Climate
Carbon removal projects take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it for different lengths of time. A credible project must measure the amount removed, manage reversal risk and explain how long the carbon is expected to remain stored.
Nature
Nature based removal can restore forests, soils, wetlands and coastal ecosystems while supporting biodiversity. Other approaches can convert waste biomass into stable materials that may also improve soil health.
People
Well designed carbon removal projects can create jobs, support farmers and land managers and strengthen local livelihoods. Community engagement and fair benefit sharing are important parts of credible project delivery.

How we assess carbon removal projects
Ecologi uses its Carbon Project Assessment Framework to assess carbon removal projects for quality, wider benefits and delivery risk.
1. Quality
We assess certification, compliance, ratings, verification and safeguards, alongside criteria tailored to each removal method. This includes additionality, accurate measurement, storage durability, permanence, leakage and protection against double counting.
2. Co-benefits
Projects can receive additional points for evidenced contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. These can include biodiversity restoration, improved soil health, sustainable agriculture and stronger local livelihoods, with unsupported claims penalised.
3. Risk
We assess primary risks that could compromise the project and secondary risks that could undermine buyer claims. Storage, project, physical, political and compliance risks adjust the final score. Only projects scoring 80 or higher within their project type are eligible for funding through Ecologi.

Frequently asked questions
What makes a high-quality tree planting project?
High-quality tree planting projects have several characteristics: they plant native species suited to the local environment, involve and benefit local communities, monitor survival rates over time, and take a holistic approach to landscape restoration – not just planting trees in isolation.
The best schemes also address threats like fire, drought, and grazing animals, and have contingency plans to replant if survival rates drop. At Ecologi, all our reforestation partners meet these criteria. We conduct detailed due diligence before funding any project and monitor sites using satellite technology to track growth and detect risks.
How does Ecologi monitor tree survival?
We use a two-tier monitoring approach. First, our reforestation partners conduct regular on-the-ground assessments, reporting survival rates and project outcomes every six months. Second, Ecologi uses satellite monitoring technology through Earth Blox to track vegetation growth, forest health, and hazards like fire and drought across all project sites.
If survival rates fall below agreed thresholds, our partners replant trees at no extra cost. This dual approach ensures accountability and gives you confidence that the trees you fund are actually growing and contributing to ecosystem restoration. All updates are shared transparently with our community.
Where does Ecologi plant trees?
Ecologi funds tree planting across 18 countries on three continents, working with 11 reforestation partners. Our projects span the UK, Madagascar, Mozambique, Kenya, Ethiopia, Senegal, Morocco, Nicaragua, Brazil, USA, Australia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, and more.
You can choose to fund trees in specific regions (such as native tree planting in the UK) or support our global project and Impact Funds, which direct funding to a range of landscape restoration projects chosen for their ecological and social impact.
How much does it cost to plant a tree through Ecologi?
Tree planting costs vary by location and project type, reflecting the real costs of quality reforestation. Prices range from £0.60 per tree for global projects to £5.45 per tree for Brazilian native planting.
Why the difference? UK projects involve higher labour costs and more expensive native species. Projects in other regions can often plant trees more affordably while still delivering high-quality, community-led restoration. All pricing is transparent and covers not just planting, but also site preparation, monitoring, community engagement, and long-term stewardship – everything needed for trees to survive and ecosystems to thrive.
