Big Tree Announces Biodiversity Business Development Plan

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 26, 2024 / Big Tree Carbon Inc. (the "Company" or "Big Tree") (TSXV:BIGT) is pleased to announce the first-of-its-kind Natural Asset Resource platform model for the protection and stewardship of the world's unspoiled biodiversity.

Pioneered by Big Tree, a business platform representing a virtual proxy for Nature in a new web-based community dubbed "The Nanaverse" is being designed in partnership with a select group of First Nations in Northern Ontario. The general public, corporate, education, government and social organizations will be offered the opportunity to directly support the value of Nature through a 20-year project protecting biodiversity assets while generating revenue to further develop this exciting new concept. Software and web development is being provided by a recognized team of tech industry designers.

Big Tree has spent the past five years developing a model to counter the insufficiency and patchwork application of carbon offset regulations. Understanding that biodiversity is neither a credit nor offset, but rather a quantity of global wealth that is fast disappearing, has led our team to develop this whole new approach.

Big Tree will now be focused on our newly pioneered sector of the Canadian Resource Industry - namely - Natural Asset Resource Management.

It is part of Big Tree's mandate to assist under clause 92 of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action (the "TRC Report") and particularly clause 92.ii. To that end, Big Tree has developed a unique executive team, who for the past three years have been in discussions with the representative Ojibway councils of Northern Ontario to develop our biodiversity business plan for the mutual benefit of the First Nations partners and the planet.

This represents a ground-breaking initiative led by Big Tree as the only publicly-listed company in Canada with a majority First Nations Board of Directors and President & CEO. Big Tree is in the final stage of discussions with our First Nations partners in this new sector of the resource economy, namely the stewardship of our natural environment. With our Indigenous partners, Big Tree will create a revenue generating value to critical biodiversity resources to generate income, and will establish a platform where the public can participate in the furtherance of our responsibility to preserve the biodiverse natural assets for all species and our own place within Nature.
