The NatureBacked podcast is supported by Single.Earth - a startup that tokenizes the world’s nature.
Single.Earth is a GreenTech company with significant venture capital funding for scientific research and innovation development in nature-based solutions. Using natural sciences and blockchain technology, Single.Earth builds accessible and scalable tools to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss.
The rapidly-growing international team is on a mission to help preserve existing ecosystems by making nature protection profitable for landowners of all sizes. Ultimately, striving to transform the economy by introducing the world's first nature-backed currency (MERIT) that explicitly acknowledges the dependence of all economic activity and human well-being on nature.
Single.Earth tokenizes nature for its ecological value and essential ecosystem services, capturing the value in MERIT tokens.
n June 2022, the platform for landowners was publicly launched, enabling all landowners to insert their land data and receive a preliminary estimate of its ecological value. During 2022, Single.Earth will open the sales of MERIT tokens for individual and corporate buyers who aim to contribute to nature and/or see the value of virtual assets backed by the real-life features of nature.
Individuals, landowners, and businesses all have the chance to contribute and make a real impact. Together, we can build a fully sustainable nature-backed economy.
