Go Outside #3: Why Can’t Climate Be Small Talk, Too?
Weather vs Climate, small talk and Climate 3.0's latest news
Have you been outside today?
Climate Report:
Beijing: 104F, 40C for a three-day record
Founders Intro:
Hi Stewards,
We love talking about weather, but why can’t we talk about climate as small talk, too? Btw we broke down the difference between the two: weather vs. climate here.
As I write this from Copenhagen, I can see a row of endless wind turbines in the distance curving along the coastline. The turbines are all spinning in sync and are a reminder of the climate solutions that have always been available to us.
We say Climate 3.0 around here as a reminder that we are in a new cadence with climate solutions, communications, data and urgency.
Climate 3.0 is the intersection of climate solutions with a decentralized web3 approach. We have known about the climate crisis since before the internet was born (first warned in the late 1950s). And fortunately we are at a time where we have all the solutions available. There are nature-based solutions such as trees and the deep sea sequestering carbon and then there are tech-based solutions that scale these nature solutions.
STEWARD uses the blockchain to fund existing climate solutions such as traditional ecological knowledge (Indigenous nonprofits from Native Conservancy to APIB Brazil) to localized conservation efforts like Oceanic Global.
Web3 explainer here for a refresh.
P.S. Bring climate patterns into your small talk this weekend and let us know how it goes.
One Home,
Steward Sophia & Steward Olivia
What’s going on in Climate 3.0?
“Natural intelligence” photography from Nikon is pushing AI-generated images aside to show how incredible nature already is. If you’ve ever wondered what a “latte skatepark in the middle of the desert in Mars” would look like, nature has it (in Coyote Buttes, USA to be exact)
Chimpzee’s NFTs give users a way to fund reforestation and wildlife conservation efforts while earning passive income at the same time. Their initial presale round already surpassed $500k towards OneTreePlanted and the WILD Foundation’s important work.
