December 2025 is an ideal time to reflect on the real-world impact our community is helping to deliver through our support of environmental projects around the world with our eco-project partner Ecologi. This month we\u2019re spotlighting two initiatives that tackle emissions from very different angles: project 1, which uses enhanced rock weathering to lock away CO\u2082 whilst improving soils, and project 2, which accelerates access to cleaner, more efficient cooking in Uganda.<\/p>\n

Project 1: boosting crops and soil whilst permanently locking up CO\u2082 with UNDO<\/b><\/p>\n

Enhanced rock weathering is a nature-based approach that speeds up a process the planet already uses to regulate carbon over geological timescales. By spreading finely crushed silicate rock on agricultural land, rainfall and soil chemistry help the rock react with CO\u2082, turning it into stable carbonates or bicarbonates that are stored for the long term. The result is durable carbon removal that can be measured and verified, making it a compelling complement to emissions reduction.<\/p>\n

What makes this particularly exciting is the co-benefit for farming. As the rock breaks down it can release nutrients and help improve soil structure, potentially supporting healthier crops and more resilient land. Recent research using large-scale models shows that in the UK alone, enhanced rock weathering has the potential to remove up to 30 million tonnes of CO\u2082 per year, highlighting the scale of what could be achieved when climate action aligns with agricultural productivity.<\/p>\n

Beyond carbon, projects like this can contribute to better water retention and soil health, helping farms adapt to changing weather patterns. It\u2019s a practical reminder that climate solutions often work best when they strengthen everyday systems we all rely on, from food production to local land stewardship.<\/p>\n

Project 2: fuel-efficient cookstoves in Uganda<\/b><\/p>\n

Clean cooking solutions offer a transformative opportunity for the 2.3 billion people without access to safe, efficient cooking alternatives. In many communities, traditional open fires or basic stoves consume large amounts of fuel and produce harmful smoke, which can contribute to respiratory illness and place a heavy time burden on households that gather firewood.<\/p>\n

Fuel-efficient cookstoves help address these challenges by using less wood or charcoal to achieve the same cooking results, reducing both costs and pressure on local forests. They also cut indoor air pollution, improving day-to-day wellbeing, and can support local supply chains through manufacturing, distribution, and maintenance roles. Climate impact follows naturally: less fuel burned means fewer emissions, and reduced demand for wood can help protect surrounding ecosystems.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re proud to have funded the planting of 4675 trees since the start of our partnership with Ecologi over 4 years.<\/p>\n
