Problem Statement šŸ§

Carbon credits alone are not enough for nature to thrive.

Whatā€™s the problem?

Nature Loss

Half of the worldā€™s GDP, $44 Trillion, is at risk due to Nature Loss. Our economies, and us, are embedded within nature - not external to it. One million animals and plants are now threatened with extinction, approximately 150 species are permanently lost daily.

Carbon Removal

Carbon reduction is not enough. To slow or possibly reverse global warming, we must remove billions and billions of tonnes of CO2e from the atmosphere as fast as possible.

Climate Justice

The effects of climate change are not equal. Certain geographies and people will suffer disproportionate loss of income and physical, financial, human, and social assets. Investment has already stopped flowing to these areas/groups.

Nature-Based Proposal šŸ“‘


Our approach:

Our approach is simple: Realize the value of natural capital by investing in land.

We do this in a few different ways:

Property Partnership

Work with landowners (non-profits, individuals, conservation trusts) to measure and mint eco-credits.

Property Purchase

The bulk of Basinā€™s activity is identifying and purchasing properties whose natural capital has not yet been realized. These could take the form of degraded farmlands, abandoned or marginal lands, or unique properties with abundant natural capital.

Value Generation through Natural Capital

With a property in hand, we generate value through natural capital. In the case of degraded agricultural land, this could mean undertaking an afforestation or agroforestry project.

Weā€™re committed to expanding what people value in nature by allowing all the natural capital in our properties to be realized through emerging eco-credits.
