Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The project boasts over 1 million mangrove trees planted since GR17, indicating that it has been operational for a period extending well beyond 3 months.
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.
TREEGENS' grant proposal is primarily focused on climate solutions, specifically via the planting of mangrove trees which aid in GHG reduction. Their use of $TREES tokens for Proof of Plant, Non-Fungible Updates (NFU), and Dynamic Semi-Soulbound Tokens (DSST) ties the project to core web3 climate solutions infrastructure.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha & Beta round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
It is not mentioned in the provided information whether TREEGENS received funding in previous rounds. However, they do outline accomplishments, which could potentially fulfill this requirement if they were indeed a past grantee.
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.
The project description includes various accomplishments and a vision for the future, but it does not specify lessons learned or detailed usage of additional funding. There's also a lack of a rough timeline or clear plans that would be enabled by the upcoming grant round.
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.
TREEGENS' initiatives, such as tree planting with verifiable proof via blockchain technology and gamification strategies for ecological impact, are within the realm of viability and align with current web3 technology utilization and climate solutions. There is no indication the project is an impossibility, and the mention of significant trees planted suggests genuine intent and ongoing project development.
