Mombak’s reforestation commitments include planting over 30 million new trees over 70,000 acres in the Amazon basin — an area equivalent to the size of five Manhattans. Leveraging natural, indigenous-based regeneration practices together with cloud technology, Mombak increases the biodiversity, durability, and scalability of its restored forests by adhering to ecological conditions specific to its Amazonian biome. Mombak scientists use machine learning and drones to identify the highest-potential sites for reforestation and, together with neighboring communities, safeguard planting sites with robust fire readiness and prevention measures.

"As Microsoft works to become carbon negative by 2030, our partnership with Carbon Direct is important to diligencing and procuring the highest-quality carbon removal projects.
