Who We Are

Our Team

The Climate Trust invests in people that share our vision of a world where good land stewardship leads the way for a climate resilient future.

Our team consists of experts in forest management and operations, rangeland ecosystems, soil science, and carbon accounting. We work alongside mission-aligned partners to generate carbon revenue through long-term management practices that promote good land stewardship.

From carbon project origination and development to commercialization, our specialized team offers end-to-end solutions that preserve ecosystems, reduce GHG emissions, and bring the best carbon prices for landowners. Trust is in our name—and our staff members are united by a shared love of land and working with partners to support thriving forests and grassland ecosystems.
