Problem Statement

The problems we want to solve:Reality: Measuring and offsetting carbon emissions is difficult for companies, and climate projects face low funding and awareness.Social: The CSRD makes sustainability reporting challenging for EU companies, highlighting the need for better solutions to generate carbon footprint data and offset emissions.Technical: Web2 solutions lack transparency and scalability.How it works:Gamification: Engaging users with leaderboards and point systems, streaks, challenge other users with greener lifestyles.Crowdfunding: Facilitating contributions to green initiatives.Proof and Verifiability: Ensuring transparency with a tamper-proof system.Reputation: Creating green proofs and approval stamps for carbon footprints.Key Features:Leaderboard to encourage competition and engagement.GPS integration for accurate, private data.Distribution system for donations to green projects.Seamless transactions on chain + transparent flow of funds stored in vault.Highly accurate mathematical models for footprint."The global carbon offset market is projected to reach $200 billion by 2030."Producing carbon emission services could be challenging, for example:Carbon emission reportsAI for data analyticsAffordable monthly subscriptions ...but not using it can be very expensive for companiesFor next steps: we will test with users for Feedback Integration Reach out to climate projects & organizations such as https://www.energyweb.org/ Finish our MVP build up

Solution

Technologies we applied: Celo Minipay: Seamless onboarding, on ramp and gasless transfers. The Graph: A new Net Zero Subgraph will be created for feeding notifications to the end user on funds, emission offsets, donations. Flare: Data audit for carbon emission counters. Arbitrum Stylus: Efficient, low-latency on-chain calculations of carbon emissions including advanced maths libraries for trust and transparency. Hyperlane: Interoperability between Celo and Arbitrum for optimal transparency and reputation management. Blockscout: Contract verification and user receipts.
