Listening to nature

Biodiversity is declining in many parts of the world and both the private and public sectors are starting to invest more in restoration. But what works and how do investors know if the right biodiversity returns are being delivered?

Wilder Sensing is a cloud based platform that uses audio and AI to identify what’s living in a landscape – what species are present and how the species mix changes over time – both through the seasons and year over year. This talk will explore how we can use this is practice and explore a local case study.

ABOUT GEOFF
Geoff has had a deep passion for nature since childhood. He was a bird ringer and Trustee of Bristol Avon Rivers Trust. He’s worked as a geologist, software engineer, management consultant and sales in marketing director for companies such as EY, IBM and Oracle.
