Max is now based at spin-off, Renew Earth, an independent biodiversity Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) and digital platform company. In this podcast, Max explains how integrative approaches to carbon and biodiversity credits can channel private capital into nature restoration and how high integrity biodiversity measurement is achieved through multi-metric methodology, field ecology, and selective use of digital technologies. He also emphasises the importance of early-stage community engagement and cross-network collaboration in preserving restoration project integrity.
