Summarizing the Points
Smallholder farmers around the world are stewards
to a lot of carbon
Smallholder farmers are under a lot of pressure that
could cause the release of stewarded carbon
Existing carbon markets are not fair to smallholder
farmers, because they can’t be rewarded for good stewardship
Current rules (additionality, permanence, no leakage) prevent offset markets from scaling to the level needed
ReSeed proposes to sell tokenized carbon credits to help pay smallholder farmers to deliver ecosystem services
Wants to bring almost 4 GTs of CO2 credits to market by 2028
