Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The project's age is not specified in the provided information, making it impossible to determine if it meets the 3-month requirement.
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.
The project 'The Angry Teenagers - democratising investment in reforestation projects' clearly focuses on climate solutions through direct reforestation and the innovative token-based model for funding and tracking progress of tree-planting, which also generates carbon credits.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha round. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
The project includes an 'Updates since Alpha Round' section detailing the progress made, such as completion of Verra Project Design Document, planting of the first 5 hectares, and adjustments in token pricing to increase accessibility.
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 should indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its goals, and include a rough timeline for the project overall.
While project updates are provided, there is no indication of lessons learned from previous work or how additional funding will be used specifically. There is also no rough timeline for the project's overall progression included in the provided details.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The project utilizes blockchain technology to create a credible and transparent system for reforestation funding and carbon credit generation, which seems viable and understandable for individuals familiar with web3 technology and climate solutions. There is no indication that it should 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.
There is no evidence presented that suggests the project is involved in encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or manipulation of the grants platform or Gitcoin community.
