About this listen

Rachael Nutter, global director of project development at Climate Impact Partners, talks to Professor Ed Mitchard – a world expert in satellite mapping of land cover change and forest properties. He’s also the man who’s measured 15,000 trees by hand. In 2017 he co-founded Space Intelligence with Dr Murray Collins, to bring high accuracy satellite-derived maps to nature-based carbon offset projects. Or as his X bio says - he makes maps of forests and peatlands using satellite data, to bring carbon finance to protect them. So, tune in for today's episode as Ed comes down from space to talk to us about the role of satellite technology in halting deforestation and kickstarting restoration.
