Planet Tracker identified those countries which are dependent on nature for export trade revenues. We call them Nature Dependent Exporters (NDE).

Toxic Footprints

Toxic Footprints aims to show how investors are exposed to petrochemical facilities and their toxic releases in the Gulf of Mexico, USA.

Nature Dependent Trade Dashboard

Planet Tracker has developed a dashboard that maps the trade of key renewable agricultural exports to their sources by political systems. 

Global Plastic Treaty Dashboard

There is significant support for a UN Treaty on plastic pollution with 161 countries supporting a new global agreement.

WTO Negotiation Dashboard

After two decades of negotiations, a partial ban on capacity-enhancing (i.e., harmful) fisheries subsidies is finally within the World Trade Organization’s reach. 

IUU Toolkit

Planet Tracker has created an interactive IUU Detection Toolkit which helps investors compute an IUU fishing risk score for any listed fishing company.

Blue Recovery Bond Dashboard

To help investors see in practice how a blue bond could help trigger a recovery in fish stocks and generate higher returns for fishing companies, Planet Tracker has created a simple interactive dashboard where users can change the key modeling assumptions.
