RegenBuild 🏡
🏡 RegenBuild is creating the value layer for regenerative action in the built environment. 

🟢 It is building a protocol to measure, report and validate building performance through all phases of a building’s lifecycle and provide funding access to qualified projects.

RegenBuild consists of the following👇🏼

- 1️⃣ Framework - Standard that pushes beyond the status quo and clearly communicates the project's goals and achievements with all stakeholders.
- 2️⃣ Platform - Connects tools and products with validators to holistically analyse and validate building performance through all phases of a project's lifecycle.
- 3️⃣ Protocol - Powered by blockchain, it coordinates stakeholders, incentivises positive outcomes, and equitably rewards them based on verified impact and contributions to the project.

✅ Being the value layer, RegenBuild could potentially serve as the foundation for the AECO (architecture, engineering, construction, operations) industry’s transition to a regenerative paradigm over the 21st century.

# **🎯 Mission**

To align the AECO industry and build public goods to solve coordination problems and accelerate regeneration in the built environment.

# **‼️ Impact**

🏭 The built environment industry is responsible for around 40% of global carbon emissions, 30% of waste generation, and 20% of water consumption. 

[![annual-co2.png](https://i.postimg.cc/GmNx01Px/annual-co2.png)](https://postimg.cc/QFQT5wyF)

🥇 It has the highest potential to address climate change with the least amount of capital expenditure. Hence it is imperative that we address the systemic issues of the industry to affect changes at a planetary scale.

🧩 Leveraging crypto-economic systems could prove critical in coordinating the stakeholders towards shared goals and collective action. 

⏩ Building an open workflow that complements existing tools & products solves data interoperability problems and brings value to the whole industry while easing adoption. 

🤝 Connecting to DeFi funding protocols opens up new financial models and enables more projects to become regenerative.
