Wassim Merheby, CEO of Verofax, with Nisreen Shadad, CEO & Co-founder of Netgreen.
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Verofax' advanced technological solutions and NetGreen's platform comes at a crucial time as businesses and consumers increasingly prioritize sustainability.
In fact, 88% of consumers want to make an environmental impact, but lack a trusted platform that is easy and affordable. NetGreen's platform meets an urgent market need where individuals can purchase a plant-a-tree service from validated reforestation projects to combat climate change.

This model not only supports carbon sequestration but also enhances biodiversity and fosters a deeper connection between communities and their natural environments.
Preventing Double Counting & Ensuring Validation of Reforestation Projects
With Verofax validating, reforestation projects becomes seamless using Verofax' Tree Chain technology for identifying, tracking and measuring the carbon capture from trees using computer vision, AI drone feeds, geolocation, and an immutable ledger.
These technologies will automate operations to prevent double counting and ensure their alignment with the latest international standards, including Verra and UNFCCC CDM.
