Flying Whales launched in 2012 in France to develop and industrialize a 60 tons Large Capacity Airship to provide remote cargo transport. The development of this initiative began to enable the French Forestry Agency to increase large volumes of timber extraction from land-locked areas. This solution offers low operating costs, low to no environmental impact, and targets the large market of special transportation, logistics & freight market in countries with transport infrastructure deficit. This project is supported by the French Government and the Quebec Government.
Regrow Ag's Agriculture Resilience Platform is a software program that helps stakeholders across the agricultural supply chain measure and improve their environmental impact and identify areas where adopting regenerative practices would be most beneficial. They use a combination of agronomic insights, satellite imagery, and scientifically validated crop and soil models to monitor and verify the implementation of these practices, enable auditability and transparency in value chains. Regrow serves more than 100 organizations who have collectively invested more than $19M to help farmers adopt regenerative practices. These actions will abate more than 600k tonnes of CO2e, equivalent to the carbon sequestered by 713k acres of U.S. forests in one year. The platform also aggregates agricultural systems data worldwide to garner new insights about resilient farming and expand practice adoption, and to support stakeholders like governments and academic institutions to inform agricultural policy, advance academic research, and implement innovative farm projects that expand the adoption of resilient practices.

The Ocean Cleanup is a non-profit environmental engineering organization dedicated to developing and implementing technologies to extract plastic pollution from the oceans and rivers. For over ten years, The Ocean Cleanup has been researching, extracting, and monitoring plastic pollution in oceans and rivers globally – with millions of kilograms removed to date. Its technologies supporting ocean cleanup act as large-scale floating barriers, designed to concentrate plastic debris within a specific area for collection. They utilize ocean currents and wind to move through the water, gathering plastic along their path. The systems are also equipped with solar panels and wind turbines to power their operations. It also deploys floating barriers in rivers to intercenpt and prevent plastic from entering the oceans. The Ocean Cleanup also closely monitors and analyzes impacts, provides a dashboard and data insights, and is engaged in research on improving envrionmental impact analyses. The Ocean Cleanup aims to tackle plastic pollution in order to protect and restore marine and riverine environments and the wildlife they contain – as well as benefit the human communities living alongside these areas, and reliant on these ecosystems for their livelihoods.
