Biodiversity improvement
built for corporate accountability.

ESRS E4 requires companies to assess, monitor and disclose biodiversity impact. biodiversity.earth provides the hectare-level evidence — continuously monitored, independently assessed, and structured for regulatory reporting.

Three reasons corporate biodiversity
commitments fail audit review

CSRD ESRS E4 is mandatory for in-scope companies. Three structural problems cause most corporate biodiversity positions to collapse under scrutiny — and each has a direct technical answer.

biodiversity.earth is built to address all three.

A
The gap

No measurable unit of account

ESRS E4 asks: what did you contribute to nature? Most corporate teams cannot answer with data. Abstract registry numbers and quality-adjusted percentages do not satisfy auditor scrutiny.

A
Our answer

A defined, auditable unit

One credit equals one GPS-bounded hectare. The unit can be named, mapped, cross-referenced with satellite data, and included in a CSRD disclosure with coordinates and monitoring history.

B
The gap

No geographic traceability

When an auditor asks where the nature improvement occurred, the honest answer for most platforms is: we cannot show you. There is no map, no parcel, no physical connection between payment and place.

B
Our answer

Parcel-level geographic evidence

Every credit corresponds to a satellite-mapped parcel. Coordinates, land-cover change data, and monitoring imagery are available for every hectare in the portfolio — before and after purchase.

C
The gap

Activity reporting instead of outcome evidence

Buying a credit and reporting a purchase are not the same as demonstrating biodiversity increase. The standard is changing: regulators and auditors expect baseline-to-outcome comparisons, not activity logs.

C
Our answer

Five-year outcome measurement, not activity reporting

We establish an ecological baseline on every hectare. Continuous satellite intelligence monitors progress. Every five years, a baseline-to-outcome assessment documents measurable biodiversity increase.

What your organisation receives

Every credit portfolio comes with a complete documentation set. This is what your sustainability team, finance team, and external auditors will have access to.

Digital credit certificate

GPS coordinates, parcel ID, registration date, and legal ownership record.

Ecological baseline report

Pre-intervention species data, habitat condition, and land-cover assessment.

Continuous monitoring access

Multi-year satellite record — active since 2020 — tracking vegetation, canopy, land stability, and connectivity across every registered hectare.

Five-year impact assessment

Baseline-to-outcome comparison with measurable biodiversity indicators.

CSRD/TNFD data export

Structured dataset formatted for ESRS E4 reporting and TNFD LEAP methodology.

Audit documentation package

Complete evidence file for external assurance and regulatory filing.

How it works

01

Intervene

Every hectare becomes part of an active nature-recovery programme. Restoration, reforestation, agroforestry, habitat protection, or targeted land-management activities are implemented depending on the ecosystem.

02

Monitor

Satellite intelligence tracks each hectare continuously throughout the period — vegetation development, canopy formation, bare-soil reduction, land stability, moisture patterns, disturbance events, and landscape connectivity. Monitoring has been active across our project areas since 2020, building a multi-year land-cover record before any credit is issued.

03

Map

Each hectare is converted into a precise digital land unit with exact GPS coordinates, ecological baseline data, and a continuous monitoring record accessible to institutional credit holders.

04

Assess

Every five years, a baseline-to-outcome assessment demonstrates the biodiversity increase: a hectare-level impact profile showing measurable progress against the original ecological baseline.

CSRD and TNFD alignment

Structured for ESRS E4
and TNFD disclosure

ESRS E4 requires companies to apply double materiality to biodiversity: the inside-out impact (your company's effect on nature) and the outside-in dependency (nature's effect on your business). Most companies have evidence frameworks for the outside-in risk side. The inside-out contribution side is where the documentation gap exists.

Purchasing biodiversity credits from biodiversity.earth provides documented evidence of your inside-out nature contribution — the evidence most companies currently lack. These are nature stewardship contributions, not offsets, and are not used to neutralise emissions or dependencies. That distinction is deliberate.

Regulatory note: These credits do not constitute a biodiversity offset. They are documented nature stewardship contributions that demonstrate positive impact — the evidence standard required by ESRS E4 for inside-out materiality assessment.

ESRS E4 Section 3.4

Parcel-level satellite monitoring data aligned to ESRS E4 disclosure requirements for ecosystems and species — the exact evidence layer required for Section 3.4 biodiversity impact reporting.

TNFD LEAP Methodology Phase C

Baseline-to-outcome evidence structured for the Assess phase of TNFD LEAP. Habitat type, location data, biodiversity indicators, and monitoring history are formatted for direct inclusion in TNFD disclosures.

External assurance under ISAE 3000

Audit-ready documentation for external assurance engagements. Every credit includes a complete evidence file that third-party assurance providers can independently verify against satellite and field data.

Four verified projects.
149,000 monitored hectares.

View all projects

Continuously monitored — each project is tracked via satellite intelligence, third-party ecological assessment, and annual field surveys. Reported metrics include hectares under intervention, species indicators, habitat connectivity, canopy density, and land-cover change.

Who uses
biodiversity.earth

Three typical mandates, each with a specific evidentiary requirement the platform is designed to satisfy.

We needed parcel-level biodiversity data for our ESRS E4 inside-out assessment. The five-year measurement structure was exactly what our external assurance team required.

Head of Sustainability

European bank (name withheld at client request)

Our TNFD working group needed evidence of positive contribution to nature. biodiversity.earth provided the geographic traceability and monitoring history that made the disclosure auditable.

ESG Director
