In the face of a constantly evolving policy landscape, Wendling Beck Environment Project (WBEP) stands out with their commitment to a greener tomorrow. But what sets them apart? Stephen Marland and Glenn Anderson uncover the concept of biodiversity net gain (BNG): As land value surges from development, BNG means resetting habitat that has been used for development somewhere else and adding a minimum of 10% net gain. Want to learn how WBEP harmonizes development with nature? Discover their innovative strategies in regenerative agriculture in the recent Sustainability Superheroes episode: https://lnkd.in/g2CXmtJ5

Would you purchase an ecocredit focused on verified ecological stewardship / impact - even if it wasn't centered on carbon sequestration? 🐑 🍷 Say hello to the Ecosystem Grazing Credit - a Regen Network Development PBC credit based on sheep grazing in vineyard landscapes. An innovative and positive disruption to legacy climate finance products that centers innovation, land stewards, bioregionalism and rapid scaling of ecologically beneficial practices. About the credit: "...This project uses high-density, short-duration rotational sheep grazing in vineyard systems to improve ecosystem functioning through active management of the soil and herbaceous cover in the vineyard understory. The practice improves soil health, reduces use of herbicides or mowing, and enhances carbon storage. Targeted grazing also supports biodiversity, mitigates wildfires, and improves on-farm nutrient cycling." To Purchase or learn more: https://lnkd.in/gnJbMWm6 📸 : Paige Green

In the realm of sustainable agriculture, soil health stands paramount. Brian Scott, President & CEO of PittMoss®, is primed to address this very subject at the 2023 Global Sustainability Conference on October 18. His session, titled "3rd Generation Soil Revolution: The Future of Soil is Sustainable," aims to shed light on the next wave of sustainable soil management and its overarching implications for our ecosystem and food supply. PittMoss, under Scott's leadership, has championed a novel approach to potting mixes, utilizing up-cycled, organic recycled paper as its foundation. Moving away from conventional, often ecologically detrimental peat-based mixes, the company has delved deep into research, innovating around recycled paper fibers. The fruit of their labor is a peat-free product that not only holds its own against traditional potting mixes in terms of performance but also surpasses them in terms of environmental friendliness and water conservation. Scott's presentation promises to be more than just a case study on PittMoss's success. It is poised to be an exploration into the broader theme of sustainable soil management. In an era where the global agricultural community is grappling with challenges ranging from soil degradation to water scarcity, the lessons from PittMoss's journey are all the more relevant. Scott will likely elucidate on the intrinsic connection between soil health, sustainable farming practices, and the broader health of our ecosystems. Beyond potting mixes, PittMoss's innovation in producing sustainable animal bedding further underscores their commitment to holistic sustainability. Traditional animal bedding materials come with their own set of environmental challenges, from deforestation to increased water usage. PittMoss's solution, like its potting mixes, hinges on upcycled, recycled paper, offering an alternative that's not just sustainable but also superior in performance. As attendees tune in to Scott's session, they can expect a comprehensive overview of the current state of soil management, the challenges it faces, and the innovations driving its future. More than that, it will be an inspiring tale of how relentless research, innovation, and a commitment to sustainability can usher in a revolution in even the most traditional sectors. The future of soil, as Scott will emphasize, is not just about conservation—it's about reimagining and reinventing for a more sustainable world.
