Ethereum Climate Platform

Inspired by the Ethereum Merge, a group of technology companies—aligned around the mission of accelerating decarbonization and scaling climate action—is launching the Ethereum Climate Platform (ECP). Pooling the best of Web3 and digital technologies, the ECP is engaging the Ethereum community and beyond to accelerate climate finance at scale. ECP achieves this by deploying the best-in-class technology and funding the development of digital environmental assets that will mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and deliver positive environmental and social impact for years to come. The platform is also committed to redressing and counteracting the historical Ethereum-based carbon footprint, dating back to the network’s launch in 2015, and accelerating the ECP launch partners' own decarbonization strategies. The initiative was founded by Consensys and climate tech firm Allinfra and its launch partners include: AAVE, Celo, ERM, Filecoin Green, Laser Digital (Nomura), Microsoft, NEAR Foundation, Polygon, Solid World, Toucan, UPC Capital Ventures, and W3bcloud. ECP and its launch partners are grateful for the following individuals and organizations who are providing invaluable advice, connections, and support to the initiative: GitCoin, Gold Standard, Climate Collective, Global Covenant of Mayors, IETA, Code Green, GBBC, Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, UN WFP Innovation Accelerator, Michael Sheren, Satya Tripathi, Michael Brune, Chris Larsen, Ingo Puhl, Gregor Robertson, and Lex Sokolin.
