Global Decentralized Cleanup

Summary

The Global Decentralized Cleanup Initiative is an innovative project designed to leverage blockchain technology for environmental cleanup efforts worldwide, starting with a pilot and demo test on Koh Phangan, Thailand. It encourages and rewards individuals and communities for participating in and reporting environmental cleanups.

Objectives

• To motivate global participation in environmental cleanups through digital incentives.
• To create a verifiable, transparent system for reporting and recognizing cleanup efforts.
• To launch a successful pilot program in Koh Phangan, Thailand, as a model for global scalability.

DEMO PHASE

WHAT

The demo phase of the Global Decentralized Cleanup Initiative invites participants to engage in cleanup activities and document their efforts. This early stage aims to test the participation process and prepare for a blockchain-based reward system. Participants must submit evidence of their cleanup, including photos and, if seeking a refund for materials, receipts of supplies.

WHY

• Testing and Refinement: Gather feedback for a user-friendly platform.
• Community Building: Early participants form the core of an environmentally conscious community.
• Impact Demonstration: Show the effectiveness of cleanup activities to attract support.
• Blockchain Preparation: Lay the groundwork for future blockchain integration by collecting data on engagements.

HOW

1. Cleanup Activity: Clean a chosen local area, individually or in a group.
2. Documentation: Take before-and-after photos to show the cleanup's impact.
3. Cleanup Registration: Complete a form on Tally with your details, cleanup photo, and supplies receipt if applicable.
4. Feedback: Provide insights to improve the initiative and DApp development.

This phase is crucial for shaping the initiative, combining community action with technology for a cleaner planet.

ALPHA PHASE

WHAT

The Global Decentralized Cleanup combines blockchain technology with environmental action, offering rewards for global cleanup participation. Through a dApp, users identify and report cleanup needs, submitting evidence to earn evolving dynamic NFTs. An interactive map facilitates the discovery and selection of cleanup sites.

WHY

The initiative addresses environmental challenges by enhancing cleanup engagement and accountability through blockchain. It aims to create a scalable model for environmental stewardship, starting with a pilot in Koh Phangan, Thailand, and seeks integration with broader blockchain ecosystems to magnify environmental efforts.

HOW

The process involves:

1. Identification: Users mark cleanup needs on the map via the DApp.
2. Action and Documentation: Users clean selected sites and submit documentation through the DApp.
3. Rewards: Verified efforts provide Impact Points, yield dynamic NFTs, reflecting participants' environmental contributions.
4. Integration: Cleanup actions enhance users' standings in broader environmental blockchain ecosystems and become compatible with Impact Onchain Rank system and Impact Marketplace, being developed by EcoSynthesisX.

This streamlined approach aims to foster a global community of environmental stewards, leveraging blockchain to reward meaningful contributions to the planet.

Pilot Program: First Events

The Demo Phase is officially launching on 22.03.2024 with on ground support of ReFi Phangan and GreenPill Phangan and sponsored by Monthly Earth Day Phangan Treasury.

Request for Funding

We seek funding to support the development and implementation of the DApp, community engagement efforts, and the logistical aspects of the pilot program. This includes technology development, marketing, and operational expenses to ensure the project's success and scalability.

Conclusion

The Global Decentralized Cleanup Initiative offers an innovative solution to environmental challenges by combining blockchain technology with community-driven cleanup efforts. By starting in Koh Phangan and planning for global expansion, this project aims to create a sustainable, impactful model for environmental stewardship that encourages participation through digital innovation and rewards.
