Mission Markets was featured in a short article in Sustainable Industries online, read it here. The article is titled "Mission Markets Propels Ecosystem Markets: Two trading platforms from Mission Markets could spur environmental and social investment."

Sustainable Industries is a media company with an award-winning magazine, online articles, podcasts, webinars, and more. Sustainable Industries, like Mission Markets, is a B Corp, that "connects the dots between the environmental and social components of the region's economy."

Like Sustainable Industries, MissionMarkets.com works to unite the social and environmental fields, bringing socially and environmentally focused companies together with mission-driven investors.

MissionMarketsEarth.com, our comprehensive environmental credits platform, is described in the article:

"Ecosystem markets, or payments for ecosystem services, place a value on services provided by nature, such as water filtration or carbon sequestration and offer a means to provide economic incentive for conservation. Mission Markets’ tradable credits include renewable energy certificates, carbon credits, water quality credits, wetland mitigation and habitat credits, and fisheries catch shares, all of which would first be certified by Markit Environmental Registry".

A longer, more in-depth article about Mission Markets will be featured in Sustainable Industries this October.
