In A New Deal, Microsoft Buys Forest Restoration Credits From Rainforest Builder

Microsoft signed a major 15‑year offtake with Rainforest Builder for up to 1.8 million carbon removal credits from Project Buffalo in Sierra Leone—one of Africa’s largest CDR deals to date. The project is restoring the heavily degraded Upper Guinean Forest, with over 1.8 million trees already planted and a goal of 10 million across 15,000 hectares. Beyond carbon removal, it boosts biodiversity, local employment, and community benefits, supporting Microsoft’s goal to be carbon negative by 2030.
