In this interview I’m joined by the two co-founders of One Million Tonne Nation (1MTN), Anete Garoza and Kristjan Raude. They’re bringing a range of financial and legal experience to their new project where they’re focused on creating big impact through large scale restoration of deforested sites in East Africa.

See the Show Notes.

Show Notes:

Anete and Kristjan are combining a blend of legal and financial expertise to bring forward a for profit company that’s large in both scale and in benefits for people and planet.

The project is focused on land restoration across East Africa, where deforested sites are being planted with bamboo polycultures as a starting point to establish new growth for the local economy, habitat and community.

It’s an ambition that involves accelerating the development of carbon markets for nature based carbon removals and the team brings together experience from across the globe and across sectors to navigate what are ever evolving and pretty challenging areas of business.

Large scale land restoration.
And large lumps of money being brought into land restoration.
Those two things may go hand in hand, but they tend to require very different mindsets as restoration can’t simply be scaled up with a one size fits all.
Restoration needs to be contextual, adaptable.

So I was very interested to learn about this project’s approach and see how it may offer unique insights and inspiration for others that aspire to scale up regeneration and really weave together benefits for people, planet, profit.

It has huge potential and both Anete and Kristjan have a wealth of knowledge to share.
I hope you enjoy having a listen!

I take a very holistic view of the world and find enormous hope when we expand our thinking outwards and consider our issues as interconnected.

So it’s a huge delight for me to have the opportunity to speak with so many varied personalities here.
I hope you’ll enjoy learning along with me as my guests allow me to pick their brains on the diverse topics explored by this project!
