Nature Positive is defined as limiting and reversing biodiversity loss with a goal of increasing nature by 2030.

How can companies invest in the environment?

The first stage for organisations interested in offsetting is to understand your impact, your carbon footprint, following the SBS Net-Zero Program and IEMA Greennhouse Gas Hierarchy to Eliminate – Reduce – Substitute before Compensating via verified offsetting and nature restoration projects.

Until recently, the closest to an official definition of carbon neutrality was provided by a British Standards Institution (BSI) (Publicly Available Specification), PAS2060, developed by BSI, has been a benchmark for carbon neutrality, providing a framework for achieving and demonstrating carbon-neutral status. It emphasizes transparency and credibility in carbon offsetting and reduction.

Projects we invest in

Mangroves are an excellent forest type for restoration- mangrove forests not only store more carbon than traditional forests, but they also provide multiple benefits to coastal communities like storm protection, water filtration and livelihood generation.

The Tulema Koysa site lies in the Darwuo Zone of southern Ethiopia. Residents of the nearby villages lament that the hills that make up this site were covered in a lush forest only ten years ago. Unfortunately, due to increasing populations, agricultural expansion, charcoal production, and unsustainable forest management practices, the region's forests have been decimated. Additionally, the removal of more significant numbers of trees, and the steep slopes of this site, have exacerbated soil erosion into the nearby Omo River.

The planting site, known as "Milihoi/Kichwa Cha Nyoka," is situated on the coast of Kenya, directly inland from the southern end of Lamu Island. The Swahili name for the site, "Kichwa Cha Nyoka," literally translates to "head of the snake." The project aims to restore more than 2,000 hectares of partially degraded mangrove forests while protecting healthy mangroves. The Old Town of Lamu was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001 for its outstanding conservation of Swahili culture in East Africa. Lamu Old Town has become a renowned tourist attraction due to its well-preserved traditional Swahili architecture. The region is also famous for its social, cultural, and religious practices that have been sustained and passed down through generations.
