Leading practicePending Review-2 since last review

Mossy Earth is a small, bootstrapped rewilding platform with negligible operational emissions and a core mission delivering genuine biodiversity restoration across 500+ hectares. The critical weakness: no formal corporate emissions accounting or science-based reduction targets, though operational scale makes this less material than transparency and accountability gaps—no board governance, impact compensation links, or mission-lock structures.
