About the Talk

BioCarbon Engineering is a company that provides integrated data and planting solutions for large-scale ecosystem restoration projects. They use drones to plant trees. At scale, their drones will enable to plant as many as 400,000 trees in a single day, leaving the local community to focus on taking care of the young trees that have already started to grow. The integrated mapping solution that they provide, allows the communities to collaboratively design data-driven forest governance plans. Join us to learn more about their work.
