This Is My Earth

This is My Earth (TiME) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving biodiversity by using crowdsourcing to purchase lands in biodiversity hotspots.

TiME was established in 2015 by Prof. Uri Shanas[1] of the University of Haifa at Oranim, who continues to act as TiME's CEO. The organization is advised by an international team of scientists and environmental activists. TiME functions as a democracy in which every member, regardless of the amount of their donation, has an equal vote to determine which of the scientifically vetted conservation projects proposed each year is allocated the annual crowdfunded grant. The organization's goal is to preserve biodiversity hotspots and to curb the Sixth Extinction, which is mainly caused by human activity.[2]
