Where DeepTech Meets MRV and Biodiversity 🌸 🔍 Biodiversity is the variety of life on earth. But we’re facing a crisis. At least 1.2M plant and animal species are estimated to be under threat of extinction. And human behaviour is driving this loss. This urgency sets the stage for the UN Biodiversity Conference COP16, taking place this week in Cali, Colombia. Decisions made here will define the future. And implementing these commitments requires global collaboration. To achieve this, we also need to build trust and track the benefits of biodiversity efforts. Enter Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV). A multistep process that seeks to prove the positive impact of a climate or biodiversity project by measuring the positive impacts and biodiversity benefits of protection, restoration, and regeneration. And these startups are working on the solutions: Amini Cecil Nala Earth Kanop Pivotal kuyua Leeana Svarmi tumblebee Natcap GIST Impact Gaia Climate biodiversityX Hula Earth ICEBERG DATA LAB Illumina Lemu spcfy GmbH VigiLife DNAir | Biodiversity monitoring at scale SPYGEN EnviroDNA eDNAtec WildTechDNA SimplexDNA 🧬🌍 Sinsoma GmbH edna frontiers Oceanogen NatureMetrics THE FROZEN ARK PROJECT FYBR Lobelia Earth nadar Orbify Overstory Spacept Spottitt Tesselo Space Intelligence Picterra Discover the full list: https://lnkd.in/dcDPqrjE Plus come and join us at the HackSummit where Founders, Investors and Operators working in Climate Deep Tech will gather this December: https://lnkd.in/e7KsacjC
