About Infinite WILD
Welcome to Infinite WILD, an NFT project designed to invite collectors into the world of biodiversity conservation.
Technology, like renewable energy, for all its exciting potential, is not yet capable of being deployed quickly enough at the necessary scale (global) to halt the climate crisis or mass extinction. We need nature’s help – and likely always will – if we want a sustainable future.
Why wild nature? …
SHOW MORE
Well, our oceans and forests are the biggest carbon storage facilities we have helping to slow the climate emergency. Nature also produces all the oxygen we breathe. It stabilizes our climate patterns making investment in agriculture possible. And it also directly supports the livelihoods of over 1.7 BILLION people annually. To put it simply, without nature’s life-giving, ecological services our civilization loses essential biological, economic, and climate support.
To build support and appreciation for nature’s multitude of life-giving functions. Structured as a traditional card deck, including four suits that correspond to the four categories of scientifically recognized ecological service categories.
As an added bonus, all donors during the time period above will receive a Community Card NFT of the deck’s card back design. Your membership in a unique community of NFT-collecting nature advocates who invested in WILD’s critical work mobilizing support to protect Half of Earth’s lands and seas will be minted and immortalized, regardless of your gift size!
A Little Bit About
WILD is the organization working in countries around the world to mobilize action to protect Half of Earth’s lands and seas – the amount scientists say we need to have a future. We began in South Africa almost 50 years ago as a friendship between a South African game ranger and his Zulu mentor. Despite the discrimination they faced during the apartheid regime, they worked together to do something that had never been done before: save a species – the Southern White Rhino – from the brink of extinction.
Their experience taught them that without widespread, global support, we could never reverse the accelerating destruction of wild nature. Thus, WILD was born. Our primary mission is to create and mobilize the action needed to save life on Earth.

About The Artists
Amy Lewis
WILD Vice President, Policy & Communications
Since the beginning of her career campaigning for a sustainable, just, and healthy world, Amy has been designing digital art, sometimes in service to others and sometimes just because she needs to create. Her earliest works included a digital shrine to a contemporary take on the Muses who, according to Amy, now act as patrons to (in addition to their existing duties) the History Channel, Mass Media, and Rock & Roll. While her work for WILD has taken a less artistic, far more strategic turn working on an international team campaigning to save Earth’s biosphere by protecting Half of all land and seas, she enjoyed revisiting her past and producing the art for the Infinite Wild NFT collection.
