GainForest.Earth

Por um dia, a Bolsa de Valores de Nova York deixou as ações do mercado financeiro de lado para falar sobre as ações que podem mudar o futuro do planeta. Aproveitei o #tbt de hoje para trazer mais um registro do Solution Showcase, da XPRIZE, que participei durante a Climate Week. Na oportunidade, apresentei o resultado da parceria que desenvolvemos como Instituto Oyá com a #ETHBiodivX e GainForest.Earth. 🌱 💚 #ny #bolsadevalores #futuro #planeta #earth #xprize #climateweek #clima #justiçaclimatica #criseclimatica #meioambiente #esg #nyc

So proud of our team 🌱

Last month our team visited the Southern Philippines to create the largest bioacoustic dataset of the region. Learn more about our efforts and the amazing work of our conservation partner Oceanus Conservation in this short film.

🌱 Advancing Mangrove Conservation Through Bioacoustics We're excited to share a significant milestone in our research on mangrove ecosystems in the Southern Philippines. In partnership with Oceanus Conservation Philippines, we've created an extensive bioacoustic dataset that's opening new avenues for conservation. Our team has collected over 50,000 minutes of soundscape recordings from mangrove habitats. That's 840 hours of valuable ecological data, representing one of the largest collections in the region to date. Why does this matter? Bioacoustics offers a non-invasive way to study biodiversity and ecosystem health. By analyzing these soundscapes, we can gain insights into species populations, habitat conditions, and the impacts of human activities on mangrove environments. What's innovative about our approach? We're not just collecting data – we're building a green data marketplace. This initiative rewards local participants for their contributions to scientific data collection, fostering community engagement in conservation efforts. Next steps: Our team is now processing this data. We believe this work will contribute valuable knowledge to inform mangrove conservation strategies. We're open to collaborations and are keen to connect with researchers interested in this dataset or similar projects. #BioacousticResearch #MangroveConservation #EcologicalScience #Biodiversity

We are pleased to present our 2nd annual #ImpactReport, highlighting the significant strides we've made in partnership with local communities around the world. Here are the key highlights: - $32,421.21 distributed as conservation data income - 1,433 contributions to the Green Globe platform - 25 partnerships with local communities - 16 AI assistants deployed for Indigenous science, climate policy, and rainforest delineation - 3.7 TB of environmental data collected - Participation in the XPRIZE Rainforest Finals Our greatest achievement is our unwavering commitment to putting communities first. From establishing the Global Data Council to integrating Indigenous scientists and decentralized monitoring, we are ensuring that local voices are central to our efforts against deforestation. We extend our sincere thanks to all of our supporters—together, we are driving real change. Read full report here: 👉 https://lnkd.in/eaUfjSEQ
