I'm fortunate to be leading an amazing team, working in establishing the best carbon sequestering nature-based solution projects. We approached the carbon credit market differently, wanting to address the issues we saw with double counting, waste, fraud, and abuse. We decided to build a company and credits based on 6 dimensions:• SOCIAL DIMENSION: Seeks to address social needs, individual and collective aspirations, health and well-being needs, and quality of life needs.• ECOLOGICAL DIMENSION: Seeks to address the need for a quality natural environment and for sustainable resources, and to redefine the relationship between humans and nature.• ECONOMIC DIMENSION: Seeks to address the material needs and financial empowerment of individuals and communities.• CULTURAL DIMENSION: Seeks to address the need to affirm, express, protect and promote the diversity of cultural traits.• ETHICAL DIMENSION: Seeks to address equity needs, consistency needs and the need to identify with common values.• GOVERNANCE DIMENSION: Seeks to address Participation and citizenship, democracy and transparency needs, and the need for effective institutions.We Believe…• That the environment and economy can thrive together • Flourishing people are the end result of a healthy environment • A quality environment is a prerequisite to sustainable development • In striking a balance between ‘users’ and beneficiaries• An economy that contributes to the wealth of all peoples• In acting with transparency and integrity • That transparency builds trust and that trust is fundamental to building sustainably. Without trust, society is unsustainable.• In accountability• In 7th Gen Thinking• In the 17 Goals of Sustainability (UN – SGD)We believe that all of this will lead toward ethically produced credits that transform communities and facilitate a move to carbon balance.
