Ground Up Investment

Build a Resilient Carbon Removal Strategy Close to Home

For North American companies, investing in locally grounded, ex-ante reforestation projects offers a powerful opportunity to advance net zero targets while supporting climate resilience in your own backyard. Land Life's pipeline of diverse regional projects - from wildfire-affected forests to degraded watersheds - helps organizations secure future carbon removals at today’s prices, with tangible environmental and social benefits that matter to local stakeholders. We partner with State Forest Services, conservation agencies, and Indigenous and local communities to align our work with regional climate, water, and biodiversity priorities — creating integrated projects that deliver measurable impact and scale across public and private lands.

Ecosystem Recovery

Respond to Climate Disruption at Scale

Restore forests impacted by wildfires and pest outbreaks. Catastrophic events have left millions of acres of North American forests degraded. Land Life’s carbon projects target these areas for recovery, transforming crisis into climate opportunity. By investing here, you're helping build ecological resilience while generating high-integrity carbon removal credits.

Many of our projects focus on critical headwater regions — helping to improve water quality and supply reliability for downstream users in agriculture, industry, and cities.

Colorado Initiative

Join a public-private model in Colorado where carbon finance supports public schools

The Colorado State Land Board has approved a landmark public-private program with Land Life to reforest up to 1,000 acres of wildfire-affected state land. Funded through private carbon finance, this first-of-its-kind initiative will generate Verra-certified carbon credits — with a share of revenue directed to Colorado public schools. Reforesting with native species will restore degraded ecosystems, strengthen watershed health, enhance wildlife habitat, and boost resilience to future climate stressors like wildfire. It’s a powerful model of how high-integrity carbon removal can deliver lasting value for nature, climate, and communities.

Remove Residual Carbon

How Land Life Manages Your Residual Carbon Removal Projects

At Land Life, our West Coast-based team of ecologists, scientists, and reforestation experts oversees every stage of your carbon removal project—from site selection to planting to facilitating third-party certification.

Their deep regional knowledge is complemented by global expertise from our Amsterdam headquarters, where restoration ecologists and nature-tech innovators provide cutting-edge insights and tools. This integrated approach ensures your North American reforestation project is grounded in local experience and guided by world-class science.

We begin by identifying degraded land with strong potential for long-term carbon sequestration and biodiversity recovery. Our team conducts site-specific carbon modelling, selects appropriate native species, and designs each project to ensure the right trees are planted in the right conditions.

From planting through to ongoing monitoring, we manage on-the-ground implementation in collaboration with trusted local contractors and communities. Finally, we guide your project through independent third-party verification and certification, ensuring it meets the highest standards of integrity and impact.

Want to plant trees in North America, but don’t need to invest in certified carbon credits?

Land Life offers nature-positive brands the opportunity to invest in our iconic Mexico Reforestation Project. This large-scale CSR tree planting initiative focuses on restoring essential habitat and migration corridors for the renowned Monarch Butterfly.

Millions of Monarch Butterflies return to this protected area every year (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), making it one of the largest and most important insect migration sites in the world. Since 2017, we've successfully restored 230 hectares, driving significant biodiversity, conservation, and Indigenous community outcomes. Our community-based approach encompasses local planning, seedling production, land preparation, planting, maintenance, and monitoring.
