Achieve ESG and sustainability goals

Go beyond offsetting your footprint and start creating nature positive handprints.

Halt climate and biodiversity crises

Make nature positive contributions to forest preservation. Mature biodiverse forests remove and store carbon, hold biodiversity, and provide ecosystem services to keep Earth habitable.

Certified contribution to your ESG goals

Science-based approach

Local impact and global reach

Support landowners directly

Easy and efficient process

Go beyond offsetting

Given the urgency of the looming crisis, companies are challenged to think beyond offsetting and set holistic nature-related goals, including biodiversity.

Nature-positive contributions can become an integral and regular part of your ESG and sustainability efforts.

Protect threatened forests worldwide

By supporting the preservation of mature
biodiverse forests under high risk of
destruction, your company will make a
measurable contribution toward Sustainable
Development Goals 13 and 15.
‍

You'll receive a Contribution Certificate with
the number of hectares supported over a
year in a specific area and describes the
environmental characteristics (Biodiversity
Intactness Index, vulnerable or threatened
species, and average annual carbon flux) of
the forest plot.

Measurable contribution

SDG 13

Climate action to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.

SDG 15

Life on land to protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt and reverse land degradation, and halt biodiversity loss.

How it works

Landowners join Single.Earth to protect nature

Single.Earth partners with landowners, managers, and organizations who commit to preserving nature. Instead of destroying healthy ecosystems, landowners get a regular income for taking good care of their land.

Digital Twin evaluates and monitors lands

Our science team uses satellite data, geospatial engineering, and machine learning to represent nature with a global Digital Twin. The model automatically assesses each plot of land for its forest coverage, biodiversity, and carbon sequestration.

Nature-backed MERIT tokens are issued.

Based on ecological values, tokens are issued to landowners for as long as the forest stays intact. If we detect unreconciled clearcutting or land conversion, we cease minting. Using blockchain technology, we can give nature a monetary value with MERIT.

MERIT Contribution platform for businesses

Businesses can use MERIT to make a nature positive contribution by burning/retiring tokens and receive a Contribution Certificate in return. It's also possible to buy MERIT as a virtual asset to trade and use in the future.
