David Brand, Ph.D.,
Executive Chair of New Forests’ Board of Directors, emphasizes the urgency for informed action in forest management. “This is a critical time for forest management and investors to take action,” Brand said. “I look forward to working with FLINTpro’s innovative platform to provide the market with the necessary, verified data, to make informed decisions towards nature positive outcomes.”*
Stephanie Cohn Rupp,
CEO and Partnership Chair at Veris Wealth Partners, highlights the crucial role of integrating environmental data into investment strategies. “Integrating high-quality environmental data into investment strategies is essential,” said Rupp. “FLINTpro provides the insights that financiers can trust as they develop new market mechanisms to support nature and biodiversity globally.”*
Howard Bamsey,
who serves on the boards of the Climate Policy Initiative and Climate Works Centre, emphasizes the inextricable link between climate change and biodiversity. “There is no climate solution without nature and biodiversity,” said Bamsey. “We now have the accessible data for stakeholders to manage risks and capitalize on opportunities for sustainable and regenerative strategies.”*
Werner Kurz, Ph.D.,
with over 35 years of experience in forest carbon analysis and accounting, stresses the importance of accurate forest carbon insights for climate solutions. “The future of climate solutions depends on accurate forest carbon insights,” said Kurz. “Forests play a critical role in our climate and FLINTpro equips decision-makers with the relevant tools and data to understand forest ecosystems and reduce emissions effectively.”Meeting the Urgency of Climate Change
The urgency of addressing climate change and meeting global deforestation targets is a driving force behind FLINTpro’s mission. Tina Morris, FLINTpro’s Chief Executive Officer, underscores this urgency, stating, “Finance is essential for advancing a nature-positive future. Without integrating nature into economic decisions, meaningful climate targets are out of reach. The failure to meet global deforestation targets in 2023, which led to nearly 3.8 billion metric tons of carbon emissions, underscores the urgency for action.”
FLINTpro’s mission is to empower stakeholders with the data they need to drive change and secure a sustainable future for our planet. The company’s commitment to providing a single, trusted platform with intelligent layers of verified data on land use, deforestation, GHG emissions, and biodiversity is a critical step towards achieving this goal. With the support of its expanded advisory board, FLINTpro is poised to play a leading role in the global movement for a nature-positive future.
