Project Summary / Description:

Building both an (information and) exchange platform for nature restoration and related climate,  water and community-based environmental projects (plastic removal or similar), especially outside the carbon market.
* both Platform and System will be blockchain and AI-based, and will measure, match and analyse projects on carbon, water, biodiversity and other (SDG,  social, community) indicators towards (future) impact and actual performance once initiated, as well as matching these to other projects
* initiating pilot projects on the system on (initially) river restoration and dam removal, adding up to 7-10 fields and/or bioregions (Mangroves, peatlands, regenerative agriculture, oceans, forestry etc.), within the first year of full operation, depending on the possibility to access external funding for these projects and programmes
* developing (larger) overarching programmes for the fields of operation, geographical and/or  (bio)regions, or larger ecosystems as mentioned above (rivers, mangroves etc.), to enable cross-overs and mutual benefitting as compared to individual projects
* initiating several larger (pilot) projects both in- and outside the carbon markets in fields such as river restoration, plastic removal (nature based solutions), etc.
* expanding the cooperation with NGOs and donor organisations for using both the platform and system, in order to upscale the implementing of projects

How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:

Restoring nature generally has a positive impact on GHG, depending on  the type of ecosystem or measure where it is implemented.

Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

Projects will focus on nature restoration, taking into account local communities and (indigenous) rights to the territories covered. The focus is clearly not on climate/carbon only, the impact of each project should be much bigger also in other fields.
