About Knowing.Earth
Today there is so much information available that no one individual can ever hope to know everything.
But, technological advances in data storage and easier accessibility through the internet means that this vast wealth of information is increasingly only a click away – the expressed vision of Google – but we are not quite there yet. It is easy to access what is digital, but not everything is digital. And which information should we use and believe?
Here at Knowing Earth we are building a core team who know where and how to look for information, the questions to ask of it, and the experts to call when needed. This team is supported by expert partners around the world in Academia and Industry.
Together we are building information and data resources and insights based on the most current understanding of our planet’s past, present and possible futures. In this way, we are able to support more informed decision making, from the search for natural resources to environmental management to education to shaping government and world policy.

How do we work?
|
We bring together the right experts and validated data, innovating new processes to help solve Earth-system resource problems. From oil and gas exploration to environmental change policy and management.
Our approach is never set in stone [sic]. We adapt and tune our network team, resources, capabilities and processes to meet the specific needs of our client partners. We firmly believe in assembling the right team and right approach for each project. It’s about collaboration, innovation and education. And of not being afraid to ask for help or to initially ask the 'wrong' questions. It's about new and innovative ideas, but also the recognition that those scientists and natural philosophers who have proceeded us have already had many of the same ideas before us and still have much to contribute. If we have not read their past, we are destined to repeat it. Supported by our own data and knowledgebases to provide a resource for all who need it |
