ReFi - Our 3 favorite dapps to help save our environment

The landscape of dapps that contribute to a better environment in the Celo blockchain is extensive. So we’ve taken the hard part of finding them and highlighted 3 of the best dapps that contribute to a more sustainable environment. 

Each of these 3 dapps focuses on a specific area that helps improve our environment -  from cleaning the world of plastic, to trading carbon credits, and offsetting carbon emissions. 

Together, they empower our community to contribute to a better environment with just a few taps of the Valora app!

 

Plastiks - Purchase NFTs that remove plastic from the environment

  

Plastiks.io is a Greentech company focused on plastic recycling by connecting companies with plastic recovery projects worldwide. 

By harnessing the power of the Celo blockchain to verify plastic removal, Plastiks enables both individuals and businesses to take significant action against plastic pollution.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Marketplace - Companies can set up campaigns that are linked to plastic recovery programs for users to browse and select from.

  2. NFTS -  Users can buy, trade, and collect the most environmentally friendly NFTs that companies create through the Plastiks.io’s marketplace.

  3. Blockchain - The Celo blockchain facilitates marketplace NFT transactions, guaranteeing fast processing, affordability, and carbon neutrality.

Toucan - Purchase carbon credits

 

Toucan protocol leverages blockchain-based infrastructure to help scale carbon markets globally. By tokenizing carbon credits, Toucan is enabling new use cases,driving new demand, and providing a more transparent global marketplace for carbon credits. 

Toucan’s network gives climate projects the opportunity to pool together similar carbon credits to build deep liquidity, which can then be traded on decentralized exchanges across Web3.

Here's how it works:

  1. Carbon Credits - It all starts with carbon credits. A carbon credit represents a project’s planet-positive impact. Carbon credits are certified by standards bodies like Verra and Gold Standard.

  2. The Toucan Carbon Bridge - Ensures that only credits from trusted sources become TCO2 tokens. These tokens are moved onto the Open Climate Registry, which lives on energy-efficient blockchains like Celo.

  3. TCO2 Tokens - Have all the carbon credit data such as the project info, the date of when it was created and more. Then these tokens can either be retired, taking them out of circulation or deposited to a TCO2 carbon pool for trading on a decentralized exchange.
