Co-Benefits:
Metis:
Climate change is the most pressing issue of our time, for both society and our planet. As global emissions continue to rise, so too does awareness of the issue as average, everyday consumers are making big changes in their consumption and purchasing habits. Green initiatives can significantly improve a brand’s value; whether through advertisements, social media pages, or press releases, communicating your green activities will aid in user retention, reputation, and position Metis as an environmental leader next to blockchains such as Polygon, xDAI, and Elrond.
KlimaDAO:
We’re working to build the world’s most efficient carbon market and rapidly scale the capital flowing to high-impact sustainability projects globally. As part of this mission we’ve created a suite of tools to make it easy for anyone, from large corporates to individual consumers, to become climate positive via the support of carbon mitigation and removal projects. A partnership with Metis would further solidify Klima’s role as the premier solution for blockchain-native companies to achieve their sustainability goals.
