A Project/Organization may only submit one project to the round.
The Grant must be primarily focused on climate solutions (the group may do other work but the grant proposal should be directly related to climate solutions). The proposal should explicitly outline how this project will help reduce GHGs or is an important core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions. For each type of climate solution project, including data and specific measurement plans will enhance your application.Your project should be part of one of these categories of Climate Solutions that CCN has identified:
- Renewable Energy
- Oracles & dMRV
- Carbon Accounting
- Climate Activism/Education
- Nature-Based Solutions
- Ocean-Based Solutions
- Climate Adaptation/Climate Resilience
- Supply Chain solutions
- Built Environment/Transportation
Grantees who received funding in a previous round(s) must provide a new update on their progress and impact. You can also include the challenges you've faced. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
- You can use our newly published Climate Solutions Metrics Garden for inspiration and guidance on ways to measure your project’s impact.
- We encourage grantees to mint [Hypercerts](https://hypercerts.org/) impact claims with a description of your projects impact goals.
- We also encourage grantee to register their project on [Karma GAP](https://gap.karmahq.xyz/) and add milestones for your near term goals.
- Priority review will be given to grantees who utilize these tools.
All returning grantees are expected to update their proposal, in addition to project updates the proposal should include lessons learned from previous work and how they will use the additional funding from the upcoming round. The updated proposal must indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its upcoming goals, and include a project roadmap of the next year for the project overall.
All projects are required to be within the **“realm of viability”,** meaning ****they should be realistically achievable within the given conditions and resources and by the people submitting the project.
Projects are expected to be practical and capable of succeeding based on current circumstances, knowledge and technology.
- Even if a project is early, it must still seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Including information about the team's expertise, qualifications and skills will help us review your grant.
- Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
Grantees can be eliminated from consideration in the round if they are found to be encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.

The assessment does not contain information regarding the age of the Earth Commons project such as the Twitter account creation date, web domain registration date, or other public information that would confirm if the project has been in existence for at least three months.
A Project/Organization may only submit one project to the round.
There is no indication that the Earth Commons has submitted more than one project for consideration in this Gitcoin round; the criteria appear to be met based on the information provided.
The Grant must be primarily focused on climate solutions (the group may do other work but the grant proposal should be directly related to climate solutions).

Based on the description, Earth Commons is engaged in activities that unite various climate-focused stakeholders including climate entrepreneurs, academics, and NGOs, which suggests alignment with climate solutions. However, the application does not contain specific details on GHG reduction or core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions that would be critical for a comprehensive evaluation.

There is no information provided indicating whether Earth Commons has received funding in a previous round or about the progress and impact of the project if it has been previously funded. Thus, it cannot be determined if they meet this eligibility requirement.
All returning grantees are expected to update their proposal, in addition to project updates the proposal should include lessons learned from previous work and how they will use the additional funding from the upcoming round. The updated proposal must indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its upcoming goals, and include a project roadmap of the next year for the project overall.
Due to the lack of information about Earth Commons' past grantee status and the absence of an updated proposal, it's not possible to assess whether they have met this requirement.

Earth Commons presents an approach that seems to be within the 'realm of viability', involving the coordination of various stakeholders to address climate issues through established channels such as conferences, hackathons, and grants. The lack of specific details regarding the team's qualifications makes a definitive a conclusion challenging, but the project's general goals seem achievable and realistic.
