Pina Earth
Pina Earth is a climate tech startup unlocking carbon markets for European forest owners. Local forests can become certified carbon projects through an independent certification with Pina. As a result, climate-resilient forests become a reality, and sustainable forestry is rewarded with recurring income. The carbon stored in forests can beaccurately measured and monitored by combining cutting-edge remote sensing technologies and artificial intelligence.Pina Earth's platform assists forest owners in registering their land for carbon credits. It then sells what amounts to a high-tech forest management service, assisting landowners in making forest adaptations such as planting climate-resilient tree species, which should generate extra carbon credits over time compared to if they did not undertake the sustainability-focused measures that will allow the forest to take up more carbon.
