Our Mission
Our mission is to contribute to turning the trend on biodiversity loss, restore ecosystems and increase carbon sequestration. To show that it is possible to work effectively with multiple tools while benefiting both biodiversity and the climate.
The importance of taking action today is crucial for our future generations.
It is a matter of urgency to find solutions to restore our ecosystems, as described in the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. It is essential that the private sector contributes to the solutions as government finance will never be sufficient to bridge the gap. In Sweden the financing gap is approximately EUR 2 billion annually to 2050.
We develop and implement investable projects in the Nordic region that deliver measurable biodiversity benefits and carbon sequestration. We hold a strong position in the market, however that is not what we pride ourselves on the most, but rather what we are passionate about. Fundamentally, we are trying to restore balance to the natural environment for the sake of future generations, to leave them with a world capable of sustaining a decent quality of life.
A tool to this end has been designed and developed in the form of “Environmental Attribute Certificates” (EAC), enabling the financing of project-measures based on quantification and certification of gains and reductions through “biodiversity credits”, “hybrid credits” and “carbon credits with biodiversity co-benefits”.
Over 50% of global GDP is at serious risk from loss of biodiversity. Most businesses, from micro-enterprises to large multinationals, are dependent on natural resources and healthy ecosystems that can produce essential ecosystem services for clean air, water, and healthy soils. Knowing this, many businesses are still on a steady path continuing to inflict harm on the natural environment. Whether due to a lack of knowledge or lack of care, the result is the same. Unless we all get involved and turn the trend, we are putting our future generations at serious risk.
" The private sector has to a large extent contributed to the situation we find ourselves in, and needs to take an active role in solving the problem. "
Addressing your environmental footprint and financing nature, no matter what size of business you operate, has numerous benefits: It will bring new opportunities in response to changing consumer demand for responsible behaviour. One can decipher existing and pre-empt new regulatory impacts on your business, whilst saving costs and natural resources. It is possible to redirect financial flows towards nature-positive activities and achive several goals, economic, environmental and social, at the same time (IUCN).
