What is this crowdfund about?
The REDD+ Chocó Sur program is being developed by a partnership between the Colombian based company Extracon S.A. and the Condoto-Iró community council. The latter is a municipality in the Colombian department of Chocó, located on the Pacific Ocean coast. The goal is to make the community self-sufficient while paying attention to social aspects, the environment, and sustainable business practices.
The consortium has the task of proposing and developing strategies, plans, programs, projects, products, and services tackling the problems of global warming, climate change and social issues like job creation and life quality.
Who is Greenwins?
Greenwins is supporting the completion of the REDD+ Chocó Sur program through the self-developed Crowdfund for climate: the Chocó Sur REDD+ program initiative. Greenwins is a Belgian based company that wants to activate people, companies and governments to work together on the solutions for climate change. Chocó Sur REDD+ is one of the most promising projects out there, a strong ‘weapon’ to fight climate change.
A solution to global warming and climate change
Deforestation is the second most important cause of CO2 emissions, global warming and climate change. In the absence of a solution to deforestation, the possibilities for combatting climate change are very limited. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has adopted a mechanism for reducing emissions resulting from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) as a promising solution for addressing climate change.
Supporting the potential of developing countries
Developing countries offer excellent opportunities to start climate projects that focus on sustainable forest management, natural capital protection, and agroforestry projects. Some of the largest rainforests on Earth are located close to the equator. Climate projects allow us to achieve high carbon deposit capacities, safeguard vital ecosystems, and maintain biodiversity with unique climate and soil conditions.
Creating valuable circular economy models for the future
The REDD+ Chocó Sur program aims to install a complete circular economy model which shall be based on the financing power of the carbon credits revenue stream and the specific local conditions or needs of the area such as poverty and lacking job supply, low population density, outstanding biodiversity and large areas of degraded land, world class photosynthesis conditions supporting sustainable concepts focusing on biomass, forestry, agroforestry, farming, renewable energy and bio economy.
Colombia is in need of post-conflict solutions
After a civil war the lasted for more than 50years, Colombia since
yearend 2016 is in peace now. The perfect moment to start building a
better future for the country and the inhabitants living in hitherto
neglected rural areas.
It can be assumed that the post-conflict
consolidation projects of the Colombian government in the project area
directly or indirectly will add important stability to the REDD+ Chocó
Sur program.
Why do i need to support this crowdfund?
Support Greenwins and make the project of the people from Chocó Sur happen. With your donation we can contribute to a better future. Not only for our generation but also for the generations to come. Our world deserves to get something in return for all the beautiful things it offers us.
Want to claim your reward?
Every donation counts! With this we can make this promising project ready to start and give something back to the people of Chocó Sur who are fighting for mankind on the frontlines of climate change every day. See what you can get in return from your donation. The money that is raised goes integral to the project.
The REDD+ Chocó Sur program offers the unique opportunity to
compensate your personal CO2-footprint. Depending on the amount of
your support you will receive your personal claim that a specific
number of carbon credits will be retired in the project data-base once
the first verification and certification of the project takes
place.
In this way your chosen combination of donation and
carbon credits indicates the quantity of tons of CO2 compensated in
the future on behalf of your name.
And while a minimum donation
of 30 EUR is required to create a compensation of 2 carbon credits, a
donation of 100 EUR will lead to a compensation of 10 carbon credits.
As the average equivalent of carbon credits decreases significantly, a
donation of 1,000 EUR will be rewarded with a compensation of 400 units.
