GreenPill Brasil - Regenerative Action and Community Innovation

Empowering Communities Through Coordinated Impact

Overview

GreenPill Brasil is committed to fostering socio-environmental regeneration by merging innovative Web3 technology with grassroots community action.

Our mission encompasses restoring biodiversity through projects like food forests and native bee conservation, enhancing waste management via composting and recycling initiatives, and promoting climate resilience through agroecological practices.

We empower communities by providing education and tools for sustainable living while ensuring transparency and traceability of our impact through blockchain and hypercerts.

Our journey includes the completion of two community activation cycles, with continuous efforts to align our objectives and deepen our regenerative campaigns and partnerships.

Past Achievements and Challenges

• First Activation Cycle (GG20): Focused on initial community building and establishing our regenerative goals. We onboarded several projects to the network, with four participating in the GreenPill community funding round with Octant.
• Second Activation Cycle (GG21): We aimed to align objectives, deepen regenerative campaigns, enhance partnerships, and expand educational efforts.
  • Community Alignment: We refined our goals but lost some members during this process.
  • Regenerative Campaigns: Successfully deepened our efforts in biodiversity projects and waste management.
  • Partnerships: Consolidated existing partnerships and created new ones, including with AgroforestDAO, NodeHubWeb3, and FabulosaLab.
  • Education: Developed an onboarding document and facilitated sessions, including one Greenpilled session about grassroots economics and the Sarafu Network's work in Kenya.
  • Quadratic Funding Round: While we did not advance much in this area, we aim to conduct this round on Celo by the end of 2024, tied to our training cohort participants. This cohort is being created in partnership with AgroforestDAO.

Coordinated Impact Protocol (CIP) for Regeneration

GreenPill Brasil employs a Coordinated Impact Protocol (CIP) to systematically address and manage regenerative campaigns. This structured approach ensures that our efforts are well-organized, impactful, and measurable.

Observation, Registration, and Mapping (ORM)

• Description: Identify and map areas needing regenerative intervention.
• Actions: Use GIS tools and field techniques to recognize and document areas dominated by invasive species.
• Documentation: Broad view photos and detailed images of invasive species.

Research Analysis and Verification (RAV)

• Description: Analyze recorded information and validate proposed actions.
• Actions: Evaluate field data, identify priority intervention areas, and validate findings with experts.
• Documentation: Assessment reports and validation documentation.

Engagement, Interaction, and Execution (EIE)

• Description: Implement regenerative actions and confirm their execution.
• Actions: Carry out cutting, shredding, and planting native species; monitor and document progress.
• Documentation: Photos of planting processes and improvements in soil health.

Ongoing Regenerative Campaigns

• Control of Leucaena leucocephala:
  • Area: More than 20 protected areas dominated by Leucaena to be controled.
  • Actions: Cutting and shredding Leucaena, planting native seedlings.
• Impact: Approximately 100m² controlled area, 25 native trees on the ground.

• Native Bee Conservation:
  • Activities: Distributed over 50 native bee traps on São Paulo state and transferred captured colonies to proper wooden boxes.
  • Impact: Improved pollination of native plants and increased biodiversity.

• Recycling and Composting Initiatives:
  • Composting: Produced 300L of organic compost and spread it on the soil, enhancing soil fertility.

• Recycling Support: Mapped and supported 10 recyclable waste collectors, providing organic food or financial aid bi-weekly.

Strategic Partnerships and Collaborations

• AgroforestDAO: Training cohort for agroforestry projects.
• Silviprotocol: Developing an open-source tree database and the GreenGoods app, aiming to create a replicable model for other regions and species.
• Towards Symbiocracy (Zuzalu): Exploring hypercerts and the CELO ecosystem, see registers.
• ICP: Exploring hypercerts and decentralized AI models. See records
• NodeHubWeb3: Providing infrastructure for events, workshops, classes, and podcast studio under the ReRe cultural protocol.
• FabulosaLab: A maker space in Rio de Janeiro that hosted a climate awareness event and launched our campaign to help RS.
• Celo Network Support: GreenPill Brasil is providing technical support for developing a Celo network node in Rio de Janeiro, in partnership with NodeHubWeb3 and ReRe.

Events and Engagements

• ETHSamba, Rio OnChain Week and ETHRio: Strengthened network and innovation.
• Community Meetings: 100+ meetings, 150+ hours of discussions.

Environmental Data Science

Our campaigns integrate robust data science methodologies to monitor and evaluate environmental impacts:

• Baseline Assessments: Partnering with biologists and ecologists for species inventories and chromatographic analysis to track ecosystem improvements above and below ground.
• Quarterly Monitoring: Regular assessments of biodiversity and soil health.
• Data-Driven Insights: Preparing publications on native bees, invasive species costs, and biodiversity data quality.
