Treeconomy is proud to support Trusted Deliverers of the Wilder Carbon Standard for Nature & Climate, a pioneering standard for nature and climate designed to scale wilding and nature restoration efforts across the UK helping to lock up durable carbon and mitigate biodiversity loss. Having engaged with Wilder Carbon over the years, we are excited to talk about our collaboration and how our expertise helps amplify the impact of the Wilder Carbon projects.
About Wilder Carbon: Leading the Way for Climate and Nature
Wilder Carbon sets a high standard by focusing on restoring native UK habitats and ensuring dual benefits for climate and biodiversity. Wilder Carbon embraces a minimum intervention approach, promoting natural processes to guide habitat restoration and emphasising carbon and biodiversity gains. The standard guarantees that projects deliver measurable, lasting benefits through rigorous monitoring and verification, thus upholding high integrity, credibility, and trust.
Our Role and Commitment
As one of the “Monitor and Evidence” collaborators, Treeconomy contributes with cutting-edge digital Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (dMRV) technology to support Wilder Carbon projects. Our efforts include:
- Baselining and Ongoing Monitoring: Using advanced dMRV technology, we will help establish accurate baselines and provide continuous monitoring for interested Wilder Carbon projects, starting with the flagship Heather Corrie Vale project in partnership with Kent Wildlife Trust.
- Technical Expertise: Treeconomy’s team, including our co-founder, Rob and our science lead, Matt, contributes to the Wilder Carbon DMMRV Technical Advisory Board, providing strategic insights to strengthen the standard.
Treeconomy’s Vision
Treeconomy shares a commitment to transparency, quality, and impact in the voluntary carbon market by:
- Advancing Measurement Capabilities: Our technology will enhance the measurement of complex mosaic habitats that are often challenging to assess with traditional analogue methods.
- Support Investment Attraction: By ensuring high-integrity data and robust monitoring, we help attract private capital at the premium price points necessary to fund holistic projects.
- Champion Additionality and Permanence: Our combined efforts with Wilder Carbon Trusted Deliverers will uphold an emphasis on additionality and permanence, ensuring projects contribute meaningful and long-lasting environmental gains.
