Numbers that matter.

Full transparency. SD tracks and provides online information on every contribution, every dollar transferred, and every hectare and species protected.

The Eight UN SDGs

Not a marketing claim. The result of decades of research on what keeping a forest standing actually does.

SDG 1 - NO POVERTY

SDG 1 - NO POVERTY

1.2 billion people depend directly on forests for their livelihoods. When a forest goes, their economic base goes with it.

SDG 2 - ZERO HUNGER

SDG 2 - ZERO HUNGER

The Amazon generates the flying rivers that carry rainfall for hundreds of millions of people. Deforestation breaks that cycle.

SDG 3 - GOOD HEALTH

SDG 3 - GOOD HEALTH

Intact forests reduce the risk of zoonotic disease spillover. The science connecting deforestation to pandemic risk is well established.

SDG 6 - CLEAN WATER

SDG 6 - CLEAN WATER

Forests are the most effective water filtration systems on Earth. When they go, rivers run brown and water costs rise.

SDG 8 - DECENT WORK

SDG 8 - DECENT WORK

Conservation projects funded by SD create employment in the most economically vulnerable regions: rangers, scientists, community monitors.

SDG 13 - CLIMATE ACTION

SDG 13 - CLIMATE ACTION

Forest protection delivers over 30% of the emission reductions needed by 2030. Every intact hectare is a carbon vault.

SDG 14 - LIFE BELOW WATER

SDG 14 - LIFE BELOW WATER

Reduced deforestation means less sediment runoff, protecting the reef and seagrass ecosystems that 3 billion people depend on for food.

SDG 15 - LIFE ON LAND

SDG 15 - LIFE ON LAND

Forest protection preserves biodiversity and supports indigenous communities, the most effective long-term stewards of their territories.

Where the money goes.

Colombia - Verified biodiversity credits tied to traceable habitat protection.

Global - Wild cats and large intact ecosystems across the Americas, Africa, and Asia.

Why the numbers at scale are not speculative.

Current

$208B/year conservation

Gap

$942B needed annually

Opportunity

$2T intermediary fees

10% capture = $200 billion for conservation

It is much easier to redirect existing spending than to create new funding.

What SD commits to on transparency.

90% → Projects (90 days)
10% → Operations
Surplus → Conservation

Every allocation decision published with full reasoning and data.

Blockchain verification of contribution data planned for future phase. Until then, contribution records published every cycle.
