Nature-based carbon project landscape

Assess before
you invest.

Bad feasibility work is costing developers certifications and investors capital. We are active across Africa, Asia, and Latin America — and we assess projects the same way we build them.

Representative report structure. Actual project numbers, risk ratings, and recommendations vary based on land, methodology, and standard assessed.

Three levels of commitment. One decision framework.

If your project has real carbon potential, you need more than an estimate. Our full feasibility study documents every material factor — land, additionality, carbon potential, risk, financials — in a format built for the scrutiny it will face. Start with a $500 eligibility check. If it qualifies, we produce the full report.

Eligibility Assessment

Confirm the opportunity exists before committing to it.

Before resources are allocated, you need an expert-led answer: does this land actually qualify for a certified carbon project under current standards? We run a rigorous eligibility screen — drawing on satellite data and direct methodology experience — and give you a documented assessment you can build a decision on.

A written eligibility assessment. Clear recommendation on whether to proceed.

Confirm the opportunity exists before committing to it.

Full Feasibility Study

A study built to withstand the scrutiny it will face.

Our full feasibility study is structured for the standards required by investors, development finance institutions, and international certification bodies — Verra VCS, Gold Standard, Plan Vivo. It is not a template exercise. It is built on the same methodology we apply to our own projects, by the same people who develop them.

A 70+ page pre-feasibility report — land analysis, additionality, carbon potential, risk register, financial projections, and development roadmap. Structured for investor review and certification pathway planning. Core assessment remote; field validation identified where required.

A study built to withstand the scrutiny it will face.

Project Development

For the right projects, we become your partner.

Where the feasibility study confirms a strong opportunity, we offer to lead or co-develop the full project — from Project Design Document through certification, credit sales, technical implementation, and ongoing monitoring. For qualifying projects, we also consider direct capital investment. This stage is only available following a completed feasibility study.

End-to-end development partnership. Capital co-investment for qualifying projects.

For the right projects, we become your partner.

We assess projects the same way we develop them.

Feasibility.Earth is built and operated by the project development team at Green Earth — an experienced developer of certified nature-based carbon projects. That team has developed projects across four countries: cookstoves in rural Nigeria, community agroforestry in Uganda, afforestation on the restored banks of the Aral Sea in Kazakhstan, and reforestation in the Congo Basin in Cameroon.

When we conduct a feasibility assessment, it reflects how we evaluate projects for our own portfolio — held to the same methodology standards required by Verra and Gold Standard auditors.

The quality crisis in carbon markets starts at feasibility.

Three things the strongest buyers and certification bodies now know — and are testing for.

01

Most feasibility studies are built on the same flawed assumptions.

The voluntary carbon market has documented quality failures at scale — systematic overcrediting, projects that fail additionality tests years after certification, credits sold to major corporations that turned out to be worth significantly less than stated. In most cases, the problem started at the feasibility stage.

02

Corporate exposure from a failed project is not just financial.

KPMG's 2024 ESG due diligence study found that over 50% of investors who encountered material ESG findings faced a deal-stopper. For corporates associated with failed or challenged carbon projects, the reputational consequence extends well beyond the write-down.

03

Rigorous methodology is now the differentiator, not the baseline.

The buyers and certification bodies that matter have raised their standards significantly. An assessment that would have passed scrutiny in 2020 will not pass it today. The team you commission needs to work to current standards — and to know from experience what those standards actually require in practice.

Who assesses your project

The people, not the platform.

Every feasibility study is assigned to a practitioner with direct project development experience in the relevant type and geography. These are the people who will review your project — not a software pipeline.

Sezjan Ali

Carbon Project Specialist

Brings hands-on expertise in carbon project development and feasibility assessment across multiple geographies and project types. Works across the full project pipeline — from initial site evaluation and methodology selection through documentation review and certification pathway planning.

“The difference between a project that gets certified and one that stalls is almost always in the early work. Catching the right issues at feasibility stage is what makes the rest of the process predictable.”

Four core project types. Three leading standards.

We assess reforestation, agroforestry, ARR, and cookstove projects against Verra VCS, Gold Standard, and Plan Vivo. Each type has distinct methodology requirements. Our team has direct development experience across all four.

Tell us about your project.

We will tell you honestly whether it has merit, what the risks are, and what it would take to develop it. Our team has been through this process — on both sides of the assessment.
