India’s Largest Sustainability Operations Platform
for Global Scale and Deployment
About Earth5R
Earth5R is India’s largest and most trusted environmental organization. We work with 1.3 million citizens and 1.2 million farmers to build measurable and verified climate action.
Earth5R is recognized by UNESCO, partnered with the United Nations, and awarded by Google. We operate across 65 countries, driving data-driven sustainability and large-scale environmental impact.
Over the last decade, Earth5R has built one of the strongest sustainability ecosystems in the Global South, connecting governments, industries, researchers, and communities into one operational network.
This network links government bodies, policymakers, industries, research institutions, and communities to support national and global sustainability goals.
How Earth5R Builds Scale
Earth5R serves as the innovation vehicle that brings leading climate technologies into high-need regions of India and the Global South. We support innovative companies through fast market entry, cost-effective deployment, and structured pilots across waste, water, air, energy, agriculture, deep tech, and circular systems. This is enabled through proprietary data, nationwide field capacity, and strong operational IP.
Our deployment model lowers risk by combining technology and field execution into one integrated system. This ensures predictable performance, reliable scaling, and verifiable impact. Along with this, Earth5R drives significant carbon offset and contributes to global decarbonisation efforts.
Our platform blends AI intelligence, domain expertise, and operational management to deliver environmental and commercial results at scale across high-need communities.
The Challenge
High-need regions across the Global South face rising climate pressure in Waste + Water + Air + Energy + Agriculture. These regions need fast and scalable innovations that can deliver reliable impact.
The Approach and The Model
We apply a disciplined execution framework that adapts global innovation to local conditions in high-need regions.
Our model manages coordination, ground delivery, and outcome tracking, enabling partners to scale with lower risk and higher clarity.
Our platform is a game-changer for sustainability.

How it all started?
Saurabh Gupta left his corporate job at Cafe Coffee Day India, setting out on a life-changing journey to cycle around the globe.
Over the next two years, he completed 50,000 kilometers cycling through Asia, Africa, and Europe- little more than the circumference of Earth.
He witnessed widespread environmental destruction and apathy worldwide. Driven by determination, he founded Earth5R – an organization built on resilience and a commitment to change. This is how Earth5R was born.
