Silverstrand Capital

🌊  Global sea levels could rise by up to 1 meter by 2100, intensifying flooding, erosion, and saltwater intrusion—threats that put coastal infrastructure, economies, and ecosystems at risk. With coastal zones valued in the hundreds of billions, asset managers, insurers, and policymakers urgently need better tools to assess and mitigate these risks. That’s why we’re excited to back Ocean Ledger, a UK-based marine precision analytics company that is redefining how we analyze, manage, and protect coastal assets. 💡 Read more in our latest Investment Notes on why we invested in Ocean Ledger ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gknHjekK Paige Roepers | Jeremiah J.

Drop a shapefile, hit run, and voila! Instant carbon credit projections. We've cracked the code on VM0048/VT0007 automation, now running in under an hour! No more spreadsheet nightmares or weeks of number crunching. ⁉️ Why this matters: Carbon developers can now quickly test project viability with our pre-loaded Hansen data (or BYO activity data if you prefer). You'll get immediate credit estimates while building better risk maps and keeping your teams focused on ground operations instead of technical gymnastics. This isn't just incremental improvement. We've turned days of specialized work into minutes of simple clicks. And yes, everything's customizable to your specific workflow (because cookie-cutter solutions rarely cut it in carbon). The tool is live on NikaPlanet now 👉 DM me for a quick demo! #Nika #NikaPlanet #CarbonMarkets #CarbonCredits #BuildingInPublic #VM0048 #VT0007
