This project addresses the following categories of Climate Solutions identified by Climate Coordination Network:
- Climate Activism/Education
- Oracles & dMRV 
- Carbon Accounting 
- Nature-Based Solutions 
- Climate Adaptation/Climate Resilience 

The power of Web3 has yet to be fully realised in climate action as many of these technologies remain disconnected from communities on-the-ground. Access to funding and technology is a major challenge - particularly in the Global South’s rural and indigenous communities who have massive potential to expand biodiversity protection and commons stewardship, but lack market access and funding to grow initiatives and purchase their land (often back) for conservation, reforestation, regeneration and food security.

Establishing standards for monitoring and evaluating climate change mitigation efforts is expensive, with high barriers and up front costs for carbon accounting, oracles, and dMRV to issue carbon and biodiversity credits for climate resilience. https://medium.com/kolektivo-co/monitoring-reporting-and-verification-methodologies-in-regenerative-finance-81d76cb9710

There is also a huge learning and technology curve to gain access to eco credit markets, and many existing institutional programs that work with these communities are corrupt, provide under market value, and lack transparency in funding flows and impact accounting.

Most financing is also exogenous and does not maintain value and circulation within these communities, who remain dependent on external economic injections.

Initial goals include:
To create exposure and protection for the communities using oracles & dMRV,  Carbon Accounting, Climate Activism/Education, Nature-Based Solutions, and Climate Adaptation/Resilience.
Co-develop an educational guide specifically designed for rural and indigenous communities to include information about Web3 climate tooling, eco credit markets, community currency creation, cryptocurrency, etc. and coalition building with other communities and land stewards with high integrity partner organizations in these fields.
Support the expansion of land preservation with the issuance of high-quality eco credits via dMRV and oracle partnerships where the investment stays within the communities and helps reduce GHG emissions and preserve biodiversity. 
Support the repurchase, preservation, and regeneration of degraded land, especially on the edges of indigenous territories to expand the “buffer” amidst increasing development pressure.
