We bring our deep understanding of blue carbon as an effective decarbonization route, through scientific research, design and implementation of wetland restoration schemes, and key stakeholder relationships, to enable both positive environmental impacts and access to alternative funding.
We have over 25 years of experience in habitat restoration, such as managed realignment schemes, where we have been involved in all aspects of these schemes’ development Âfrom identifying suitable sites, designing the schemes, and monitoring them through construction.

Bridging the Gap Between Decarbonization, Net Zero through Nature-based Solutions
Net zero requires action in two directions. On the one side, organizations must work to significantly reduce the release of emissions. On the other, they must support the removal of continued emissions from the atmosphere once decarbonization measures have been implemented. Nature-based solutions – also known as natural climate solutions - have a significant role to play in achieving net zero, spanning both emission reductions and removals.
