Sequesting Carbon Sinks.

Establishing Carbonculcha Biodiverse Carbon Sinks provides landowners with an environmentally enhancing alternative additional income stream.

Using permaculture and holistic management techniques will greatly improve land, both plant / tree and soil carbon sequestration will be steadily improved, enhancing traditional vegetation, facilitate cultural practices and produce a diverse risk managed income.

Native Forests & Shrublands As A Place To Store Carbon.
Estimating carbon storage requires
a knowledge of the areal extent
of forest and shrubland vegetation,
and the average amount of carbon stored in that vegetation.

The Benefits of Forest Sinks.
Forest sinks can provide a
practical contribution to efforts on farms & at the national level to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, while potentially contributing to Australia's other environmental and economic goals.

Biodiverse Carbon Sink Food Baskets

Carbonculcha can produce large quantities of premium value added Carbon Credits utilising the process of bio-sequestration and/or renewable energy projects by establishing Permaculture Bio Diverse Carbon Sinks across various regions of Australia, utilising land held by:

Indigenous communities under the title of Aboriginal Land Councils and landholdings managed by the ILC
Established farming communities seeking alternative incomes
Land Trusts of financial institutions
Mining companies seeking to rehabilitate land

Establishing Carbonculcha Biodiverse Carbon Sinks provides landowners with an environmentally enhancing alternative additional income stream. Using permaculture and holistic management techniques will greatly improve land, both plant / tree and soil carbon sequestration will be steadily improved, enhancing traditional vegetation, facilitate cultural practices and produce a diverse risk managed income.

How It Works

Investors invest in the establishment of Carbon Sink and then lease from Landowners and community.
Investors keep the Carbon Credits to sell on or utilise to offset their own company carbon emissions.
Landowners and communities receive negotiated payments forlong-term leases based on amount per tonne of carbon sequestered.
Community owns food harvested from Permaculture food forest harvest
Community and landowners retain ownership
of land.
