ALMAGUA - Every ADA trap CO2

The project is aimed at companies and individuals who want to offset their carbon footprint. Companies that purchase a CO2 removal voucher will benefit from a carbon tax reduction.

ALMAGUA will collect data from solar powered fishing boats and mature tree conservation through the collective adoption of NFT trees. For each tree adopted, a non-fungible NFT token is received on the cardano blockchain.

In the footprint measurement processes in forest conservation or plantation of cataloged species, we want to implement an Environmental and Economic Accounting System to legitimize the records in the carbon compensation markets, as well as implement tools for climate action, for the carbon process certified neutral. These certificates will be uploaded as bonds for carbon removal, in the cardano markets through a unique registration code as a Non-Fungible Token.

We want ALMAGUA's environmental initiatives to be able to be governed through a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) that includes an ADA stake-based treasury that issues reward tokens.

At the same time, ALMAGUA contributes financially to the fight against climate change and promotes its projects in a much more honest way than traditional carbon markets.

The slowest process of the process is the development of the DAO since it requires approximately 6 months, we require 10,000 USD to finish the prototype of the solar fishing boat, on the other hand for the certification process some methodologies must be implemented so initially We will start with a pilot test in the process of certification and issuance of certificates of tons of neutral carbon of the energy project generated by the solar bracas and the preservation of forests.

  1. Creation of nft for adoption of trees (creation of unique collectible characters)

Those who acquire bonds will have access to the ALMAGUA foundation's VIP channel on Discord and will have a participation vote to validate the foundation's environmental projects.

  1. Finish the prototype of the solar boat that was mentioned in the innovation video

  2. Testing of the prototype of the solar boat and the smart meter for the counting of energy saved that will be certified as carbon neutral credits

  3. Creation of NFTs with Carbon Neutral Certification through valid entities in Colombia. Those who acquire the certified bonds will have tax benefits and will be able to join the VIP channel to validate environmental projects of the foundation.

  4. Listing of Carbon Neutral Credit Tokens on the Cardano Marketplace

  5. campaigns to educate users about cardano and its ecological value in this initiative, as well as promote dynamic and healthy lifestyle activities, such as national cycling events. and start with the idea of ​​developing an activity to generate compensation through sports gamification, for each cyclist registered in the event ALMAGUA commits to planting a kind of tree.

  6. With academic volunteers, we want to form interest groups in institutions through face-to-face and virtual talks on the use of cardano and its benefits in the carbon footprint compensation process.

  7. Implement an ALMAGUA cardano pool to collect funds and support social and environmental projects of the ALMAGUA foundation.

  8. In January 2023, after the validation of the previous processes, the ideation of a DAO will begin to promote the transparency, legitimacy and accounting of the carbon credits issued by the ALMAGUA foundation.

Species adoption tokens or NFTs will be the initial development process, this involves the design and development of virtual pets that can have a 2-month development process.

The project in its initial stages may be audited through an open book of the budget for the prototype for the development of the solar boat, the prototype process may have a development time of 6 months from the approval of the funds, after validation of the prototype, the count of collected energy will be carried out and of the forest conservation projects in tons of co2 for their certification, these can be audited by issuing them in a cardano marketplace, this will have a period of 2 months in its development.

The educational activities of cardano will be carried out virtually and will be destined to different educational institutions, this may be audited through youtube, vimeo or another streaming platform open to the public, this activity will be developed in a period of three to 4 days in a free and open manner for those who want to attend.

We see very well the viability of the project, here the most important thing is the development of the prototype to be able to do the measurement and certification of credits, we already have a patent we only need the prototype

The previous proposals of ALMAGUA are aligned with this same project, the advantage that we currently have is the advice of experts in the development of technologies for the development of the pool and the DAO platform.
