“Time in nature is a free accessible tool, with no side effects. We give nature a number”.
Jared Hanley is a co-founder and CEO of NatureQuant, a research and technology firm building tools to assess and promote nature exposure. Prior to founding NatureQuant, Jared used data science and statistical modelling techniques and provided advisory services in finance, energy, and real estate applications. He is a published author and speaker on ERISA laws and plans. He has a B.A. in Economics and a B.A. in Cognitive Science, both from Yale University. He is a FINRA-registered securities principal and a Chartered Financial Analyst.
Jared takes us back to early years of playing in the wilderness near a creek to living in a city and feeling disconnected to nature and having to reset for his own wellbeing, which lead to him conceive how to quantify nature. We talk about Naturequant which delivers technology to assess and promote nature exposure. NatureScore measures the amount of natural elements that optimize your health within one km radius of your location. NatureDose is a personalized nature prescription mobile app which monitors your time, inside and outside and exposure to nature. Jared says, “We give nature a number”.
We explore rich nature and deficient nature, Jared makes the point that you may live near a forest but if you don’t go outdoors into that forest, you won’t feel the benefits of nature. We discuss the fact that we spend 95% of our time indoors or in a vehicle vs our ancestors who spent 99.9% of their time in nature, it feels like a big social experiment which we are only now beginning to see the effects of this on ourselves both physically, psychologically, and chemically.
