Grassroots Carbon Reaches 1.9 Million Tons of Verified Soil Removals for Net Zero Demand
Grassroots Carbon became the first US firm to deliver 1.9 million tons of verified soil carbon removals, with over 1.5 million tons retired by corporate buyers like Nestlé and Microsoft, paying $40 million directly to ranchers since 2022 across 2 million acres in 22 states. The program incentivizes regenerative grazing for soil health, using deep 1-meter soil sampling, microbial DNA testing, and sensors for rigorous MRV, holding the largest private US soil carbon dataset. It boosts water infiltration (up to 30x), biodiversity, productivity, and rural economies on America’s 655 million grassland acres, positioning it as a scalable natural CDR solution.
