In this episode I invite you to open your mind to the potential around our coastlines. It’s easy to overlook the value of the soils that are hidden underwater and the life that they support, but these blue carbon ecosystems are significant right across the globe. We are losing them, and the work to restore them can be even more challenging to fund than with projects in land.
This is a catch up with Diana Denke, co-founder of Fair Carbon.
You’ll find the link below to our previous episode with Diana, where she helped us to break down the barriers to understanding finance around nature based solutions.
Here she returns with equally valuable insights around developing projects for restoring blue carbon ecosystems.
We chat about:
– Blue carbon ecosystems – what they are & why they’re so valuable
– Barriers to blue carbon projects
– The role of communities for long term success
