natural climate solutions in action

About Naturebase

Naturebase will be an online platform that helps decision makers put Natural Climate Solutions into action.

Naturebase will deliver information grounded in science, lighting up pathways to protect, manage, and restore nature for measurable climate benefits. Bringing together the latest research, policies, and feasibility considerations, Naturebase will guide near-term action for decision-makers, practitioners, resource managers, and investors.

Farmers, foresters, governments, and local communities will learn where to deploy natural climate solutions to achieve their climate targets in consideration of their own needs and interests.

Users will be able to explore and compare target areas across forests, wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural lands, while considering issues such as land tenure, opportunity cost, financing opportunities, and enabling conditions.
