In the 21st century, climate challenges are increasingly affecting our planet, and innovative solutions are emerging that use blockchain as the foundation. Core features of the blockchain, such as transparency, immutability, and decentralization, are proving beneficial in the fight against environmental issues. The world seeks new methods of incentivizing and tracking environmental efforts, and Moonbeam is becoming a popular choice for climate-focused initiatives.

The project leveraging Moonbeam is Carbify, an RWA-based carbon offsetting platform that shows how Moonbeam can be used to create positive, tangible environmental impact while providing unique opportunities for users to participate.

What is Carbify?

Carbify offers real-world asset (RWA) based solutions for carbon offsetting. At its core, Carbify's innovative approach revolves around “NFTrees”—unique Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) representing real trees in the Amazon rainforest. This collection goes beyond mere collectibles; it represents a tangible link to carbon uptake efforts in one of the most important ecosystems on earth.

Upon minting NFTrees, you can claim $aCO2 tokens equivalent to each tree’s absorption of one unit of CO2 gas from the atmosphere. Through this process, digital assets are tied directly and verifiably to real-world environmental impact, as described by Carbify’s goal of utilizing blockchain for good in terms of climate change.
