Climate
Building Climate-Resilient Livelihoods for a Sustainable Future
Overview
Tomorrow's Foundation’s climate programmes focus on promoting sustainable, climate-smart agricultural practices that both reduce emissions and strengthen rural livelihoods. Initiatives such as Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) help optimize water use in paddy cultivation while lowering methane emissions, and biochar interventions enhance soil health, improve crop productivity, and support carbon sequestration. Together, these efforts contribute to building climate resilience, improving farm incomes, and encouraging environmentally responsible farming practices.
Biochar
Location - Birbhum
Tomorrow’s Foundation is pioneering biochar-based climate solutions that restore degraded land, support farmers, and reduce carbon emissions. Our work with communities ensures biochar is not just an innovation—it’s a movement for sustainable agriculture and resilient livelihoods.
Alternate Wetting & Drying
Location - Birbhum
Tomorrow's Foundation is piloting a large-scale AWD project across 100,000 hectares in five West Bengal districts to cut methane emissions by 60% and reduce groundwater use by 30–40%. With over 10,000 farmers already engaged, early results show 35% water savings and stable yields. Backed by regional agencies, the project aims to scale via carbon finance under the Gold Standard, enhancing livelihoods and climate resilience.
