Safe Water Carbon Credits

Restoring access to safe water — and transforming how your organisation takes climate action.

Across rural Togo, many families still rely on boiling water over open fires to make it safe to drink.

This daily routine consumes vast amounts of firewood, releases avoidable greenhouse gases, and exposes women and children to harmful smoke.

By rehabilitating broken boreholes and restoring access to safe water, Carbon Kind removes the need to boil water — cutting emissions, improving health, and giving women time back to focus on family, farming, and enterprise.

High-integrity carbon credits that create healthier communities and restore the planet.

Certified for Integrity

Why Buyers Choose This Project

  • Recognised Quality: Registered under Gold Standard for the Global Goals and developed in line with the Core Carbon Principles (CCP) — meeting the ICVCM global benchmark for high-integrity carbon credits.

  • Transparent Data: Every borehole repair is GPS-tracked and monitored, creating a clear data trail from field activity to verified emission reduction.

  • Human Impact: Each credit delivers safe water, cleaner air, and stronger community resilience — impact you can measure and share.

  • Flexible Integration: Credits available for pre-purchase or ongoing portfolio supply, aligned with your Science Based Targets or Beyond Value Chain Mitigation (BVCM) goals.

  • Beyond Carbon: Each credit contributes to climate, health, and gender-equity outcomes across rural Togo.

Locally Led, Lasting Change

In 2024, we began rehabilitating boreholes across Togo — not just as a safe-water solution, but as a foundation for long-term community resilience.

Local technicians are trained and employed to restore and maintain boreholes, working closely with village leaders and water committees to ensure reliable, sustainable access.

“Before, we had to boil every bucket. Now we have safe water nearby — no smoke, no firewood, no wasted time.”
