The Earth Genome releases 2015 progress report

CBO Partner, The Earth Genome, recently released an exciting year one progress report. Earlier this year, the Earth Genome partnered with CBO and a team of ASU researchers to develop a series of decision support tools to aid in resource decision-making.

The Earth Genome has also partnered with leading GIS software developer Esri, the World Resources Institute and the Environmental Defense Fund.

In the coming months The Earth Genome will pilot its first tool that is designed to reveal options for decisions on water use. The water tool will be showcased at the World Business Council on Sustainable Development meeting in December 2015.

The Earth Genome and CBO are currently exploring the design needs for the next tool, to aid users in making sustainable investments.
