Our Mission

We seek to fund projects that preserve natural tropical environments by using remote sensing to create evidence-based carbon credits.

Cambridge University are the academic body behind the PACT

Every PACT is associated with an intervention project which aims to avoid or sequester emissions. In the case of avoided tropical deforestation, this might be:

Trusted nature based marketplace

We are currently working on a prototype of a trusted nature based marketplace, which is further described in the short video below. Please do get in touch with us with questions or feedback, or browse the site for more information about our activities.

climate crisis

Certified Emission Reduction units (hereafter carbon credits) can be purchased on the voluntary market, but genuine concerns exist as to whether credits, in their current state, will enable the transition to net-zero by 2050 and a net-negative emissions economy beyond this point.

In response to this challenge we have developed a framework

Together these innovations allow NBS, CCS and in principle any other offset projects to be compared on a like-for-like basis. We believe this has the potential to greatly increase buyer confidence, project comparability and hence NBS sales to existing and new buyers, and as a result encourage many more NBS projects to enter the market.
