Published purpose

GN’s rapid planter is strongly aligned with global sustainability, emissions reduction, and renewable mandates. In a recent Deloitte assessment, reforestation was identified as a primary source for emissions management and estimated over $1 Trillion in spending is necessary to help achieve 2050 outcomes. Solutions like GN's reforestation technology are well positioned to participate in this massive growth industry. This project is focused on the commercialization of GN's mechanical tree planting unit (Rapid Planter), which aims to create long-term, well-paying jobs that help empower positive environmental outcomes. Commercialization will be in collaboration with the University of Calgary, Red Deer Polytechnic, and stakeholders in Australia
