Pond Foundation

About the Pond Foundation- The Pond Foundation is a pioneering organization dedicated to fostering credible regenerative action for people and the planet. Founded by Scott Poynton, we challenge the status quo in sustainability and climate action by prioritizing deep, meaningful solutions over superficial fixes. Our mission is to inspire trust and lasting change through innovative initiatives that address the pressing challenges of our time.

Our Philosophy- At the core of the Pond Foundation's philosophy is the belief that authentic and transparent action is essential for achieving sustainability. We aim to empower organizations and communities to take responsibility for their environmental impact, moving beyond mere compliance to embrace a culture of accountability and regeneration.

Key Initiatives

1. My Carbon Zero: Our flagship initiative encourages organizations to take full accountability for their carbon emissions, offering comprehensive greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting, carbon removal credits, and sustainability advisory services. We help members commit to rigorous action against climate change by removing all historically emitted carbon.

2. Regen21: This initiative develops regenerative supply chains that promote sustainable agricultural practices. By partnering with local farmers and organizations, we focus on cultivating crops like Bambara groundnuts in Northern Ghana, fostering biodiversity, improving soil health, and enhancing farmer incomes, particularly for women.

3. Hilary’s Kids: In honor of Hilary Thompson, a lifelong advocate for children's rights, this grassroots initiative supports rural communities in Ghana through education, healthcare, and nutrition programs. We aim to break systemic barriers and empower children to lead full, healthy lives.

4. Earthtrust: A revolutionary verification platform designed to combat greenwashing, Earthtrust offers brands a transparent way to verify their sustainability claims. By leveraging digital solutions and blockchain technology, we ensure that consumers can trust the environmental impact of the brands they support.

5. Forest Love: This initiative emphasizes the importance of forests and the communities that protect them. By providing resources and support, we help safeguard vital ecosystems while promoting sustainable livelihoods for indigenous and local populations.

Our Impact- Through our initiatives, the Pond Foundation has made significant strides in environmental sustainability, community development, and transparency in climate actions. We have successfully facilitated the removal of thousands of carbon credits, supported educational programs for hundreds of children, and implemented community-driven projects that enhance health and well-being.

Partnerships and Collaborations- Our work is strengthened through partnerships with organizations that share our commitment to credible action. By fostering trust-based relationships with local communities, pioneering organizations, and global stakeholders, we expand the reach and impact of our initiatives, ensuring that our efforts contribute to a more equitable and regenerative world.
