200 Billion tons of CO2. That is the potential amount of carbon that trees -- a solution to climate change that requires no innovation -- can remove from the atmosphere. Nathan and Diego discuss what inspired his carbon consciousness, how he thinks about the path to a more sustainable world, and what forest he is most worried about.
Diego is the founder and CEO of Pachama, a Y Combinator-backed startup working to accelerate the flow of capital to carbon capturing projects starting with forests biomass projects. Pachama harnesses satellite images and machine learning to verify the carbon storage on forests and then connects directly project developers with carbon credits buyers in an open marketplace.
Pachama is a new technology startup focused on unlocking the full potential of carbon markets to accelerate forest protection and restoration as a solution to climate change. The company harnesses the latest techniques in artificial intelligence (deep learning, convolutional neural networks) and remote sensing (LiDAR, hyperspectral satellite images) to enhance the verification and monitoring of carbon capture by forests and natural ecosystems. It then aggregates vetted projects into an online marketplace platform that makes it easy for companies to access high quality forest carbon credits, as well as to monitor and share the progress of the projects with multiple stakeholders.
You can get in touch with Pachama through their website (Diego reads all of the messages from the contact page) and they are actively hiring so don't hesitate to reach out.
