Air pollution causes disease, people in hospitals, and medical bills - good for the economy.\n \nLiving elephants have no value. Dead elephants have more value 🤷‍♀️ that’s why they are poached for ivory.\n \n(the list of examples can go on and on)\n\nThe key concept of “Triple bottom line”  (people, planet, prosperity) —  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_bottom_line  — has been around for a while but we have the capacity to address the problem.\n\nThe timing is perfect for this project to succeed:\n- satellites\n- drones\n- IoT sensors\n- big data\n- blockchain (transparency, integrity, incentives)\n- awareness of climate change\n\n••• MORE INFO ••• \n\n5 minutes pitch: https://youtu.be/6-6QSYeZqjg\n\nSlides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1UMTaGACNjKgVuWBhAhvKtBeA6quGPI-j3G8Z14jR4Lc/edit?usp=sharing\n\nWorking prototype: https://alpha.basex.com/\n\nGoogle Doc with technical explanation: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bGWu7U8qN6YZI4s4Z7lq7H-HDlAD8fFwgZdCujNSSjo/edit?usp=sharing\n\n\n••• PROGRESS & NEXT STEPS ••• \n\nToucan grant - rejected. Kleros incubator - rejected.\nThe work on the project continues regardless.\nThis is one of the most important projects that can ensure the human race will survive.\n\nSpaceship Earth. Infinite growth on the finite planet? We can change the metrics of success and continue to grow in a regenerative way.\n\n••• TEAM •••\n\nSee the blog post of the founder Mars Robertson describing his areas of interest and expertise: https://medium.com/@marsrobertson/so-what-do-you-do-ba0f598af5c3\n\nWe feel strong alignment with the values of ESG DAO - https://www.esgdao.earth/ - and we are looking forward to productive collaboration\n\n••• CONTACT •••\n\nIn case you have any questions or would like to work together.\n\nIt is not easy to explain a new economic paradigm and all the crypto magic that makes this project possible.\n\nBest way to keep in touch:\n- https://basex.com\n- https://twitter.com/basexhq\n- https://discord.gg/tBF7cGjzsS\n\nThank you for the support 💪", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "basexhq", "projectTwitter": "basexhq"}
