Here are three types of nature-related risks, with Raviv Turner of NatureX RMS.

What happens when you put Donor Advised Funds on the blockchain? Robbie Heeger is the president and CEO of Endaoment, the first community foundation that’s fully onchain. Endaoment’s smart contracts unlock speed, transparency, and new giving features like Universal Impact Pools. Hear Robbie explain how the platform works, and how the future of philanthropy might be further shaped by digital technologies, in this conversation with Matthew Monahan on The Regeneration Will Be Funded.

A few weeks ago in New York during climate week, I sat down with Ma Earth's Matthew Monahan to discuss my work with Denizen and how it's informed by my background in tech, econ / policy, and design -- and also motherhood. It's a wide ranging conversation that really digs into my theory of change for systems change, and how the activities we do at Denizen support it.

I recently had the chance to sit down with Matthew Monahan of Ma Earth at #ClimateWeekNYC and right in time for #COP16 to talk about: 💡My personal journey from business intelligence to nature intelligence and my work with the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) nature data working group 💡Founding the non-profit, Nature Tech Collective with the fantastic Giora Kaplan (Gig) and Gilad Goren 💡Why nature risks are more likely and immediate than climate risks and how carbon tunnel vision got us all blind 💡The types of transition, physical and systemic nature risks and the massive value destruction coming to the private sector if left unmitigated! 💡The insurance industry critical role in closing the nature finance gap and innovative risk transfer for nature-based-solutions and Eco DRR projects. 💡Our work at the NatureX Studio 💡The recent launch of NatureX RMS, our parametric insurtech platform to enable (re) insurers to underwrite products for the $154B Nature-based-Solutions market with a Parametric-as-a-Service platform that uses nature data and models from satellite data, ground sensors, climate data, and emerging nature technologies to create a pricing index, calculate premiums, monitor policies, and distribute payouts. Give it a watch and leave me your comments, questions, feedback here 🙏 #naturefinance #naturerisk #natureinsurance #naturetech #naturecantwait #ecoDRR

Raviv Turner is a founding partner at NatureX Studio, which is building parametric insurance for nature-based solutions.

Planet Labs recently launched their Forest Carbon Monitoring product, which aims to underpin and advance the carbon markets with more accurate and scalable satellite imagery. We sat down with Will Marshall, co-founder and CEO of Planet, to discuss this important new milestone. We also discuss the first light images from Planet’s Tanager-1 hyperspectral satellite, which is already helping to identify global methane leaks. And, of course, we cover AI.
