Clara Rowe visits Google to discuss conservation non-profit Restor,
sustainability, and the importance of open data platforms to
accelerate the global restoration movement. Ecosystem restoration
and conservation are essential for protecting Earth’s biodiversity
and achieving climate goals with the potential to reduce 30% of
accumulated global carbon emissions.
Supported by a $1.2M grant from Google.org, Restor is accelerating
the global restoration movement by connecting people to scientific
data, supply chains, and funding to increase the impact, scale, and
sustainability of restoration efforts. Powered by Google Earth
Engine and Google Cloud, the platform facilitates the exchange of
information, makes projects visible to potential funders and the
public, and allows anyone to analyze the restoration potential of
any place on Earth. With this information, anyone can better
understand their local environment and become a restoration
practitioner.
