About us
The ambition of Cambium Earth is to make a significant contribution (over 2%) of the planets annual carbon removal goals through a nature-positive and economically viable model.
The single and most efficient tool we currently have for sucking up CO2 from air are trees. Planting trees and managing carbon sounds like an easy enough task but doing it cost-effectively and at scale requires overcoming huge challenges such as access to land, regulatory constraints, high-capital needs, trustworthy product design, effective asset management, global operations, and a long-term commitment. Above all, the new world of carbon management requires a team with the ambition to learn and adapt, to share their skills, and to contribute to the project and society. We are always looking for people who share our view and are willing to bring along their unique experience and talents.
Cambium leverages over 30 years of experience with reforestation and conservation projects resulting in unique skills and IP with both native and adapted species. This, combined with our world-class sensor, data, AI, and financial expertise, puts us in a unique position to tackle the challenges behind carbon removal through nature-based solutions.
