🌱 Welcome to Terra Tree Protocol 🌱

Happy Terra (Earth) Day! 🌍

We thought it was appropriate to use this day of recognition for our planet to announce what we’ve been working on for 8 months.

Below, get a high-level view of our blockchain solution to the climate crisis 🧵👇

"There has to be an oversight function, a system or institution that could truly guard against cheating and misrepresentation in the way carbon off-set projects are being run."

. . . Welcome to the blockchain. Welcome to @TerraTreeApp 🌲

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

A study by Carbon Offset Broker found that at least 90% of 'carbon off-setting' projects don't deliver on their promises to decrease CO2 in the atmosphere 🌳

With Terra Tree operating on the blockchain, this will not be the case. Accountability is key 🔑

Until you can be sure your contribution to carbon emission reduction is not double counted, you can't be sure your contribution impacts reduction at all.

Thus, we bring the data to the public blockchain where anybody can track tree-planting and impact.

6/ We must reinvent the way trees are planted at scale with perpetual auto-funded initiatives.

@terra_money should be carbon-neutral, at least. But why not make us the first ever carbon net-negative ecosystem in blockchain?

We like the way that sounds, what about you? 👌

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

How many trees must be planted to off-set crypto's carbon footprint? 🧵👇

Despite all the benefits crypto brings to our world, it's also known for the massive carbon footprint it leaves behind.

There is no debating this, but there ARE things we can do about it!

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

5/ We believe a solution that can meet crypto's growth can only be found within the blockchain space itself.

Despite mining becoming more efficient, one thing is certain - we can never plant too many trees.

But traditional donation and grant-based initiatives aren't enough.

7/ TL;DR 👇

Terra Tree will operate on the blockchain meaning 100% of what goes on within our organization will be publicly accessible data.

Hold us accountable. We want you to 👌

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

5/ Terra Tree's planting and growth data from @Esri satellite imagery will be linked to our methodology on @regen_network eco ledger.

This will track CO2 sequestration and determine carbon credit issuance.

Thus, ensuring that all your impact and our spending is accounted for.

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

6/ 100% transparency. That is the aim. And we have no choice, because the blockchain will reveal all.

Much of the financial side of tree-planting has traditionally happened behind closed curtains, whereas blockchain’s selling point is openness and irrefutable record keeping.

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

4/ With its tracked and publicly communicated info, blockchain may be able to rebuild trust in organizations on a mission to heal the world.

Verifiable timestamps, satellite imagery & geolocations hold impact orgs accountable.

That's what Terra Tree is doing differently 💯

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

3/ Last year, Ethereum Founder @VitalikButerin donated $1 billion of cryptocurrency to support India’s Covid-Crypto Relief Fund.

We know because his public, blockchain-backed digital wallet showed the transaction.

Imagine holding orgs to spending pledges & tracking progress.

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

2/ Telling us is one thing; but, showing us is another.

In a fast-paced, globalized, digitized world, accountability is everything.

Blockchain can not only help track social impact but help to shape it.

Here's an example 👇

[Terra Tree Protocol 🌲 @TerraTreeApp]

There's much discourse about impact organizations announcing big initiatives w/ seemingly unlimited funding, but it’s hard to prove how the money is used.

Tree-planting orgs often pledge to plant millions of trees w/ no thorough follow-up.

Here's how Terra Tree is different 👇
