CarbonSolve Receives BeZero Carbon Rating for Kajiado Rangelands Carbon Project
CarbonSolve is proud to announce that our Kajiado Rangelands Carbon Project in Kenya has been assigned a BeZero Carbon ex ante Rating of “A.pre”. A BeZero Carbon ex ante Rating (referred to as the ‘ex ante rating’) represents BeZero Carbon’s opinion on the likelihood of the carbon credit achieving a tonne of COâ‚‚e avoided or removed. It is an opinion on the greenhouse gas efficacy of an ex ante credit. An A.pre rating represents BeZero Carbon’s view of a high likelihood that credits issued by the project will achieve what they predict: that each credit will represent one tonne of CO2e avoided or removed. The rating is driven by the project’s very high additionality, moderate permanence, and high confidence in carbon accounting accuracy. The rating places the Kajiado Rangelands Carbon Project in the highest 25% of BeZero-rated Soil Carbon and Agriculture projects, comparable to top-performing BeZero ex post ratings within the same sector.

Other Project Milestones
The CarbonSolve team is proud to share two significant regulatory achievements that strengthen and advance our work with pastoral communities across East Africa!
Kenya: Letters of No Objection Received
Our Kajiado Rangeland Carbon Project (KRCP) has received:
-
A Letter of No-Objection from the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) , and
-
A Letter of No-Objection from Kajiado County, where the project is located.
These letters signify that the County and National Government support the Kajiado Rangelands carbon project, which are important steps that continue to move the project forward and demonstrate compliance with Kenyan regulations that guide carbon project development.
​
Tanzania: Letter of Endorsement for the Longido and Monduli Rangeland Carbon Project Received
Our Longido and Monduli Rangeland Carbon Project (LMRCP) in northern Tanzania has also achieved a major regulatory milestone:
A Letter of Endorsement (LoE) from the Vice President’s Office (VPO) T that provides:
-
Formal authorization to undertake carbon trading activities
-
Confirmation of alignment with national climate and development priorities
-
Verification of compliance with Tanzania’s updated carbon trading regulations (2023)
These approvals reflect CarbonSolve’s rigorous approach to transparency and regulatory compliance, firm commitment to the highest international carbon standards, and the strong partnerships we’ve built with local governments as well as local communities.

Turning the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists 2026’s Vision into Action: Regenerative Grazing, Carbon Finance, and the Future of Pastoralism
As the world looks toward the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists 2026 (YRP2026), CarbonSolve and partners Soils for the Future Africa (SftFA) and Soils for the Future Tanzania (SftFTZ) are demonstrating how regenerative grazing and carbon-financed rangeland restoration can turn IYRP’s vision into action, especially across East and Southern Africa.
​
Importantly, this model demonstrates that the long-term survival of pastoralism itself is inseparable from the protection, restoration, and sustainable financing of rangelands. In a rapidly changing climate, approaches that restore rangeland health while sustaining pastoral livelihoods are foundational to the future of pastoral systems. Read more here!

January 2026 - New Article in Science Reinforces the Power of Nature-Based Climate Solutions
A newly published peer-reviewed study in Science adds strong evidence to a growing scientific consensus “that when grazing is properly managed — such as avoiding soil tillage, excessive grazing intensity, and high nitrogen fertilizer inputs — grasslands can function as net carbon sinks.”
​
Natural grasslands used for grazing livestock can mitigate climate change highlights that nature-based solutions, such as improved land management, ecosystem restoration, and soil carbon sequestration, can deliver meaningful climate benefits, while also supporting biodiversity, food security, and community resilience. Importantly, the study emphasizes that these solutions work best when grounded in strong governance and local participation, which are core principles of CarbonSolve’s approach.
