“Nature is beyond the stage where it can help itself.” - Carsten Brinkschulte This poignant statement underscores the urgency of protecting our forests from the devastating impact of wildfires. Excited to share this insightful article from Advnture, which highlights Dryad Networks’ work in wildfire prevention and forest conservation. Using our Silvanet technology - a network of solar-powered sensors - we’re not only detecting wildfires at their earliest stages but also helping safeguard biodiversity and reduce carbon emissions. 🌱 ⏲️ Early wildfire detection saves lives, ecosystems, and billions in economic damages. 🛜 The “Internet of Trees” connects forests, enabling monitoring for reforestation and conservation. 🌳 By 2030, we aim to prevent 1.1 billion tons of CO2 emissions and protect 2.8 million hectares of forest.

Big news from Dryad Networks! 🌟 We are thrilled to once again be featured in WIRED! In their latest piece, 'Environmental Sensing Is Here, Tracking Everything from Forest Fires to Threatened Species', Sabrina Weiss highlights our Silvanet wildfire sensors as a game-changing innovation for early fire detection. Powered by solar energy and AI, our sensors “smell” tell-tale gases like hydrogen and carbon monoxide, providing ultra-early wildfire alerts within minutes—far ahead of satellites or cameras. This distinction makes Silvanet a crucial tool for preventing forest fires and protecting the world’s largest carbon sink: our forests. 🌳 This recognition is not just about Dryad: it’s about the collective effort to bring cutting-edge technology to nature conservation. From fighting wildfires to monitoring forest health, IoT and AI are transforming forest management, and we’re proud to lead the charge.

Another Forbes feature for us at Dryad Networks! 📰 We are highlighted as a leader in the fight against climate change, with our innovative Silvanet system recognized for revolutionizing wildfire detection. The article underscores how our solar-powered sensors and AI technology catch fires in their earliest smoldering stages: much earlier than traditional methods like cameras or satellites. As Brian Freedman writes, climate change is a massive challenge, but integrated technologies like ours are already making a difference in protecting forests, communities, and industries like winemaking. Thanks to Andrew Karsh, Co-founder and General Partner at Bay Bridge Ventures, for the shoutout. Andrew had this to say about Dryad: “Dryad has an amazing product: Not only is it solar-powered, but it uses artificial intelligence to monitor numerous environmental factors in real-time, catching fires before they spread. It’s a dramatic step forward in reducing the risk of forest fires while also creating significant returns.” A big thank you to Forbes, Brian, and Andrew for spotlighting the impact of tech-driven innovation in combating climate change.
