Finding the signal in the noise @Treehouse CWNYC 2025

​Despite growing momentum for nature-positive action, many actors struggle to navigate the overwhelming landscape of frameworks, indicators, and technologies needed to deliver on their goals.

​Building on our joint effort to map the nature tech landscape for biodiversity, Conservation International and the Nature Tech Collective will debut a set of new AI-powered tools designed to support decision-making and accelerate the adoption of nature solutions for the nature-positive transition.

​At New York Climate Week, prototypes of the Nature Tech Directory and an accompanying AI agent will be presented for the first time. We invite you to join us in a closed-door workshop to help shape these tools, and the future of how AI and nature tech can serve your work.

​In this half-day session, you’ll be asked to share use cases and challenges where AI tools could make a difference. You’ll also be invited to join a network of stakeholders shaping the development of free, open-source tools that will serve as foundational knowledge platforms for nature tech: the solutions available, and the playbooks for implementing nature-positive interventions.

​Why join?

• ​Preview cutting-edge tools: the Nature Tech Directory and AI agent

• ​Share your real-world challenges and help shape their development

• ​Join a network of peers working toward scalable, nature-positive solutions
