Life Terra is founded on the knowledge that tree planting is regarded as the most cost-effective nature-based solution to capture carbon. As part of a multi-faceted mitigation strategy, planting trees can play an important role in the fight against climate change and the devastation it causes (heat waves, drought, forest loss, desertification, erosion, flooding).

Life Terra seeks to bring people together to plant 500 million trees in 5 years, harnessing and monitoring nature’s own carbon capture mechanism and enabling citizens to take urgent action against the climate crisis.

Life Terra is one of Europe’s largest climate action initiatives. It brings together 15 experienced organizations from 8 countries and is led by the newly established Life Terra foundation. This project was awarded €7 mln support by the Life Programme, which the consortium will use as seed money to put this initiative on the map. More information about the Life project can be found under Actions and Expected results.

Hemp the Climate is a global alliance and an environmental campaign created to support the ongoing worldwide efforts to destigmatize industrial hemp by promoting the plant as a potent carbon sequestration and soil enhancement tool, while simultaneously stressing the development of hemp for commercial use to create stable circular and bio-economies.

Connecting the principles and practices of regenerative organic agriculture with decades of experience in the hemp industry we have found that there is a direct link, so far not thoroughly investigated between hemp and its potential to mitigate the climate crisis.

We are therefore forming an action-based campaign to get this idea widely recognized and incorporated by farmers, industry stakeholders, policymakers, governments and international organizations working around climate change.

Our team and board members have over 20 years of experience in every step of the hemp production chain. We constantly track current market opportunities and latest developments in the regulatory environment for hemp and other related fields.

In cooperation with the UNFCCC Secretariat, the Climate Chain Coalition (CCC) is an open global initiative to support collaboration among members and stakeholders to advance the use of blockchain (distributed ledger technology) and related digital solutions (e.g. IoT, big data) to help mobilize climate finance and support climate policy including enhancing MRV (measurement, reporting and verification) to scale up climate actions for mitigation and adaptation, and to build trust among stakeholders.

Knowledge sharing and radical collaboration are essential to help blockchain and related digital solutions grow from early stage developments and to mature as scaled-up technology serving sustainability. Via CCC public events during major conferences, including COP, as well as via online platforms, the CCC has reached thousands of stakeholders. Looking ahead, CCC members and stakeholders are cooperating to mobilize resources to establish a Global Climate Action Data Center that will bring together innovations from across the CCC membership and related initiatives.

From its founding meeting with 12 organizations (including ClimateCoin & ClimateTrade) in December 2017, the CCC continues to grow at a rate of 2 new organizations per week and now has approximately 180 members across 45 countries – the CCC is celebrating 2 years during COP25

DEMOCRATIZING CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION

Climate Blockchain Initiatives is a disruptive financial ecosystem (Climatetrade, Climatecoin and Wallet) that aims to promote and drive funds towards enterprises that are showing their commitment to climate change mitigation.

Climatetrade, is a decentralised carbon credits marketplace that uses blockchain technology to allow corporations and individuals worldwide to compensate their emissions, and project developers to generate additional income and revenue stream based on their performance in terms of carbon dioxide reductions.

The Climatetrade technology uses the Climatecoin (CO2 Token), a cryptographic utility asset aimed to work as trading currency for certied carbon credits, allowing seamless, fast and ecient trading operations, while at the same time resolving the problem of macro and micro cross country payments.

Climatecoin Wallet has been conceptualised and designed to be the entry level to the Climate Blockchain Initiatives Ecosystem, providing an intuitive and forward thinking interface to store and share CO2 tokens.

The board and the Executive Leadership Team have been drafting a new strategic plan for the period  2018 - 2020 and I have been selected to lead the operations and achieve the goals that have been set. We will convert the vision of our white-paper into reality and we will achieve our goals pursuing concrete and factual success cases, creating value and positive impact for our planet and the people living on it, while achieving an economic return to our investors. I’m am really excited with the new challenge, ready to undertake the huge amount of work that this adventure will require. 2018-19 will be a years full of work, as there is too much to do.

Deforestation and forest degradation account for approximately 17 per cent of carbon emissions, more than the entire global transportation sector and second only to the energy sector. It is now clear that in order to constrain the impacts of climate change within limits that society will reasonably be able to tolerate, global average temperatures must be stabilized within two degrees Celsius. This will be practically impossible to achieve without reducing emissions from the forest sector, in addition to other mitigation actions.

Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) is a mechanism developed by Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It creates a financial value for the carbon stored in forests by offering incentives for developing countries to reduce emissions from forested lands and invest in low-carbon paths to sustainable development. Developing countries would receive results-based payments for results-based actions. REDD+ goes beyond simply deforestation and forest degradation, and includes the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks.

The global campaign of UN Billion Tree Campaigne (Plant for the Planet) organized by United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) had to goal to fight climate change in a concrete manner and to raise awareness in society about our environment, actively inviting people to participate in planting trees, This was inspired by Nobel price winner and founder of the Kenya Green Belt Movement (GBM) Professor Wangari  Maathai.

As fundraising external advisor, I managed a campaign for institutional relationships and fundraising on the International year for Biodiversity in 2010 and Forestry in 2011, coordinating the subsequent plantation of 47M trees. Spain was the main contributor of the European countries to the world wide campaign by UNEP, thanks to the support of governments, enterprises, schools, citizens and conservation organizations.

The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) was called for by the United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2000. Initiated in 2001, the objective of the MA was to assess the consequences of ecosystem change for human well-being and the scientific basis for action needed to enhance the conservation and sustainable use of those systems and their contribution to human well-being. The MA has involved the work of more than 1,360 experts worldwide. Their findings, contained in five technical volumes and six synthesis reports, provide a state-of-the-art scientific appraisal of the condition and trends in the world’s ecosystems and the services they provide (such as clean water, food, forest products, flood control, and natural resources) and the options to restore, conserve or enhance the sustainable use of ecosystems.
