The world needs to get to NET ZERO to protect people.

Planetary scale carbon removals are needed to stay under 1.5 degrees C. Nature can provide the majority of removals needed at scale, now and affordably.

Our Story

Sayari Earth is a global social enterprise scaling environmental restoration by connecting local communities and global capital through impactful carbon project development. Our name, meaning “Planet Earth” in Swahili and English, reflects our ambition and commitment.

With a mission to restore our planet by empowering people, what sets us apart is a unique blend of purpose and proven experience. Our leadership team brings over 15 cumulative years of experience from the team’s previous venture, BCP (BioCarbon Partners), one of the world’s largest and highest-impact forest carbon developers. Dr. Hassan Sachedina, our founder, is a pioneer in nature-based carbon markets, having led BCP as CEO for 10 years, specializing in REDD+ in Southern Africa. Ms. Joke Hoffman, our COO, brings decades of executive leadership, including 5 years as BCP’s COO. Together, they bring over 21 years of cumulative executive-level experience in nature-based carbon project development, making Sayari Earth’s management team one of the most experienced in the world.

Under their leadership, they have helped to develop 12 nature-based carbon projects that are either verified or in development, encompassing 18 million hectares and poised to reduce over 3 GtCO2e over their lifetime.

Sayari Earth presents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking both tangible environmental impact and financial return. Our experience, combined with our scalable, community-driven approach, positions us to deliver substantial returns while restoring our planet.
