There's a team interested in creating an onchain lottery, with novel mechanics that would benefit climate action. They're early stages in customer discovery and could use help answering a survey and participating in compensated customer disco interviews. Please share your thoughts! https://form.typeform.com/to/wrRPZsCw

Yesterday my 4 year old told my wife he saw an American plane. Then he asked if he could have money if he saw another one… so he’s basically a viet cong informant now.

On August 2nd, 2024, artist and technologist @cyrus is launching "plant-based," a (re)generative, plant-themed NFT collection powered by Toucan's new Green NFT extension. Each NFT contains 0.01 CHAR – that's real carbon verifiably removed from the environment. 🌱 Mint yours at @fxhash. https://www.fxhash.xyz/generative/0x6694F04C466e0DF139958E78C145B6BCc29049Eb

The goal of environmentalism should be to foster sustainable growth for humanity. If we believe economic growth is net good for the average person then we should strive to grow but in a way that prevents resource depletion for further generations. Conservationism is preservation and restoration of existing biomes.

The US has come out supporting voluntary carbon markets, but what does that really mean? And there is a role for blockchain in this. https://paragraph.xyz/@carbonfuturesproject/us-guidelines-on-voluntary-carbon-market

The US is set to drop its first guidelines around carbon credits this week. It could be a major catalyst for growth in the carbon markets. Here's what I think it means. https://paragraph.xyz/@carbonfuturesproject/major-us-carbon-market-news

Check out https://toucan.earth/ and the new carbon pool for biochar credits. Think a standardized contract and market maker packaged into a smart contract.

Randomly related, have you ever seen the differences in roots from modern grass, agriculture and native prairies? Both carbon implications and biodiversity implications from our switch from prairie to lawn.

'real world' companies -> crypto: project developers financing carbon removal projects using crypto, or accessing liquidity for their carbon credits. crypto -> sustainable business: a big challenge in carbon projects is assuring proceeds go to local communities and stakeholders

Hey! yeah working on an idea what green real world assets are for a blog post; but broadly my thinking is carbon removal credits, project financing, green bonds etc. Financial instruments or the underlying asset that are less extractive and contribute towards the new carbon economy.
