Biodiversity credits: investing in nature

Biodiversity is the foundation of life on our planet. It is the rich tapestry of species, ecosystems, and genetic variation that supports our survival and wellbeing and that of other species. Despite this critical importance, biodiversity is under threat, with habitats being destroyed, species going extinct, and ecosystems collapsing at an alarming rate.

We believe we can help reverse this trend by enabling people and businesses to invest in biodiversity conservation and fund nature's restoration. Our biodiversity net gain credits are designed to help you make a real and lasting impact on nature while also supporting the people and communities that depend on it.

How do biodiversity credits work?

A market-based solution for conservation

Biodiversity credits are used as a measure of nature investment. They represent measurable, evidence-based positive outcomes for biodiversity, such as habitat restoration or species protection.

1

Biodiversity assessment

Project developers conduct a biodiversity assessment of an area to assess its biodiversity needs and then implement conservation or restoration activities.

2

Project implementation

These projects restore habitats, remove invasive species, and employ biodiversity-enhancing practices, with ongoing monitoring to ensure success.

3

Project verification

Independent verification and certification bodies evaluate the project to ensure its credibility and integrity and then issue biodiversity credits.

4

Nature investment

Companies or investors purchase these credits to show their commitment to nature, thereby funding conservation projects and biodiversity protection.

Invest in nature. Preserve ecosystems. Empower communities.
