Landowners are nature's caretakers

Kaimo Rim, private forest owner in Estonia

“Single.Earth offers an excellent opportunity to earn additional income from forests. It helps to create a better balance between harvesting and extraction versus preservation. It also helps to avoid forest land conversion to alternative uses. Good luck to Single.Earth and congratulations for making it happen!”

Lauri Semevsky, private forest owner in Estonia

“We’ve been postponing cutting the trees for years while most neighbors have opted for clearcutting where possible. But we don't want to destroy the forest as it’s home to many species: foxes, rabbits, roe deer, occasional elks, storks, common cranes, and many more."

André Manfredini, Managing Director of Natural Resources Conservation Ltd

"The method to create a digital twin is as intriguing as translating actual nature into digital fashion. We thereupon joined forces with Single.Earth. Together, we hope to make it clear to the global society that we shouldn’t only rely on regulations and good character to protect the remaining nature we have. We as humans must understand that nature has a price that needs to compete financially with economical prices and with other land use prices, all to protect nature justly."

Save rainforests in Amazon Brazil

Santa Natalia is located in the Arc of Deforestation – the area with the most rapid deforestation in the world. The forest is immensely biodiverse, providing habitat for 175 species and removing more than 104,000 tons of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year.

Protect threatened forests in Europe

Smaller lands have extremely limited options to earn income for nature preservation. We work with landowners across Europe who commit to keeping their forests intact. Our goal is to make nature protection easy and profitable for lands of all sizes.

Support large conservation areas

Nature conservation is missing more than $100 billion each year. There’s an urgent need to increase protected areas globally and also find sustainable revenue sources for managing these areas. We are partnering with local communities and conservation organisations to sustainably protect species, habitats, and landscapes.

"It can be a little part of protecting the Amazon, rebuilding forests in Africa, and shifting the negative trend of land losing carbon — it is all I wish, really. I try to spend what I have in the most sensible way for the next and coming generations."
Hans Von Essen
"When I get the opportunity, I like to participate in cofounding projects that resonate with me. The way how Single.Earth is planning to develop their model is definitely in line with my values."
Mari-Liis Garcia
"I am really concerned about the future of our planet and the preservation of mother nature — this is why I stepped into the Single.Earth project as soon as I had the opportunity and acquired my first MERIT tokens on September 1st, 2022."
Anthony Dugas
"As Single.Earth has been rather active on (social) media, I had already heard about them months ago. The business model is novel and I am eager to follow the journey and intrigued to see what they'll do next."
