Chief Tree Planting Officer at Ecosia

How do you even oversee the health and growth of more than 200 million trees? It’s a massive challenge and the core of my work at Ecosia, which is why I’m really excited to announce our partnerships with Chloris Geospatial and Kanop, who will both be providing Ecosia with in-depth forest modelings and insights based on satellite data of our tree-planting sites 🌳 This is the next step in our monitoring practices, giving us the oversight we need to improve our reforestation efforts. With this advanced technology, our tree team at Ecosia now has the capability to assess biomass levels in planting sites, which also provides us with a more accurate measurement of carbon sequestration over time. Of course, physical site visits and working closely with local partners will still be at the heart of monitoring Ecosia trees. This additional data point will facilitate the detection of areas potentially susceptible to deforestation or slow growth, so we can step in where needed. I’m looking forward to fully integrating this new technology into our monitoring work and sharing our findings! #reforestation #climate #treeplanting

Great work Ecosia team! Thrilled about our partnership! 🚀
