Our Mission

environment4change is a UK non-profit decentralised platform created to support global environmentalism. We are building the ultimate ecosystem of environmental protection and participation, where virtual meets physical around a willingness to save our shared planet.

Globally, we will converge the new technologies of Web 3.0 to enable, facilitate and function as an engine of environmental global access and cross domain transmission, allowing us to represent, support and collect for all environmental organisations, big or small, across all environmental endeavour. Well-funded, green groups will be able to organise locally and fund both locally and globally while their counterpart, the small, poorly funded groups will have access to a local workforce, with a connected social media bias and access to local and global funding.

With environment4change’s (E4C’s) PaaS, an open and transparent proof of stake blockchain, and digital connectivity, the great divide, will have a set of shared digital tools and third-party services offering a shared solution for their unique struggle. For the large well-funded group, they will have access to local committed environmentalists. For the poorly funded but well organised group, they will have access to global funding, either personal, organisational or community based.

Service Reach and Relevance

The E4C definition of future global environmentalism sees new methodologies, arguments and user cases for the utility of a digital token. Unlocking this new potential, through blockchain technologies (layer 2 and 3), unlocks a new range of partnerships and participants, and gives our shared planet access to many millions of non and underutilised resources that now, for the first time, collectively and individually have a voice in respect of environmental effort and reward. Our Service is global, our reach is global.

The role of the E4C Foundation (Charity) in our wider business architecture?

Setting out to clean up the planet is a goal that doesn’t fit the capitalist model. We believe the Foundation Model is best suited to this endeavour as society will value a cleaner planet and recognise the immense value of having plastics and other contaminants removed from our communities.

Our Foundation is in place to promote clean-up projects around the world where participants clean up their own communities and receive rewards, both tokens, fiat or other valuables. Our Foundation will be the driving force behind developments in community engagement. The Foundation exists to benefit local communities globally, by cleaner environments locally. We believe it is the best utility of stakeholder alignment that we have ever seen.




Project

We are building a PaaS encapsulating all environmental work under an inherent architectural ability to scale. The Platform will include a digital toolset and software as a service set, wholly for the benefit of increasing the success of global environmental action! We will invest in technology solutions that address immediate problems faced around the world. When we recognise vast improvements are needed, we will start businesses to address the imbalances in markets. Having an environmental focus well beyond a profit motive will allow all of us to invest in environmentally ethical projects, at the points of greatest need for the planet, at the project source, under the envelope of service transparency.







What will the service look like?

The underlying premise of the environment4change movement is building, encouraging and supporting local environmental clean-up projects. A global movement of local environmental projects will be built, project by project. The movement sees the responsibility for cleaning up and supporting our shared planet’s ‘environmental needs’ taken away from centralised, conceited, and inward-looking governments and given to all of us, through a decentralised, connected, open and transparent networked service solution.

The continued development around layer 1 and layer 2 blockchain technologies has enabled our Team to define a more exciting and compelling global service offering. Our vision converges and encapsulates our unique PaaS software development together with the brilliant new technologies and services of layer 2, seeing the first meaningful convergence of democratised access toward large- and small-scale environmental effort, and a means of funding same, without the mystery, expense and dilution of traditional methods of funding.

Via our PaaS we will provide a single point of action, engagement, participation, operation, organisation and comment and a voice for everyone around the World. We can all participate in environmentalism, there are now no barriers to entry, participation and belonging. There is no longer a single descriptor for environmental action. Software developers, project managers, educators and all other members of our community can participate and add value to our platform and environmentalism, uniquely by their own skill set. Platform architecture is inclusive of all and will find a mechanism of participation for all. We are scaling environmental action for the benefit of us ALL!




What We Are Going To Do!

environment4change are building a set of digital tools, encapsulating everything you need to do or support environmental clean-up work anywhere around the World.

The platform will enable the creation of ‘environmental projects’ where the projects aspiration and needs are shared around a community, where needs meet resources, and a great environmental outcome is obtained. The platform will:

1. offer a simple, transparent and honest approach to funding any project anywhere in the World.

2. represent and aggregate all of the non-digital environmental organisations wanting to participate in new funding models of openness, transparency and integrity.

3. act as a global and local directory of environmental effort where local industries are paired with local issues, and local resources are borne to bear on the environmental outcome.

4. will offer seamless access to tax deductible donations via the environment4change charity, an entity registered and incorporated in the UK.

5. will enable everyone to participate in local and global environmentalism.

6. will help lift the poor and underprivileged out of poverty.

7. will promote and fund the most critical clean-up operations around the world.


Tokenomics of the E4C token

The tokenization of environmental access and participation is a construct with a difference. Where normal ‘Crypto Projects’ are driven and assessed by typical economic drivers of revenue and profit, this project measures success by thousands of projects running concurrently giving cleaner waterways, beaches, parks and bushland. Using the Ethereum POS blockchain our token will be minted prior to the PaaS software release. Tokens will be issued upon the receipt of donations, project work completed, and other value giving services. Donations of fiat currencies will be converted to a trusted decentralised stable coin prior to issuance of E4C tokens. Issuance of any tokens will be via smart contract and consistent with the coded rules of the DAO.



Helping to alleviate poverty


Working in most of the poorer parts of the globe, environmental projects, once identified, valued and completed by community locals, will receive E4C coins as payment for their contribution and help. These coins are readily transferable to local money, or transferable to goods and services like mobile network access and food vouchers. The E4C platform fosters, supports and sees local community and business coming together to fix local environmental issues, locally. As simple to use as social media is today, the E4C platform technology will do all the ‘heavy lifting’ giving the opportunity of the poorest in our communities to improve the community they belong whilst helping to lift out of poverty.

The model we aspire to is already successful in small micro examples around the world. Our vision is to take what works on a micro (local) level and extrapolate for the wider world.


Our future is a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO)!

This is a project dependent on community support, the community will drive its success. Our vision therefore is the PaaS (E4C service) should be governed as a DAO. This community-based code driven system will use the E4C token for the purposes of membership, voting and updating the rules of services. Building on the premier BlockChain platform (Ethereum) we believe continued innovation within the Ethereum ecosystem will ensure this democratised critically important platform and layer functionality is further developed and expanded in scope and depth.

environment4change is a Platform as a Service (software) created to support global environmentalism, built on the premise of transparency and trust. Using a blockchain ecosystem and utilising the layer 1 solution with the best layer two solutions, to enable the first “global environmental ‘can-do’ digital tool-set where the responsibility for cleaning and supporting our shared planet is taken away from centralised, conceited, and inward-looking institutions and given to us all to fix ourselves. With E4C, we all have a hand in cleaning up our environment, for the benefit of future generations.
