Klima DAO

What Is KlimaDAO? KlimaDAO is the infrastructure for a transparent, neutral, and public Carbon Market to accelerate climate finance on a global scale. Who uses KlimaDAO? As the neutral liquidity layer for the Carbon Market, KlimaDAO incentivizes the tokenization of carbon credits by offering an end-to-end ecosystem of utility for carbon brokers, traders, and consumers. A brief history of KlimaDAO KlimaDAO was founded in 2021 by a group of individuals from three competing organizations who had been working to solve market failures in the Carbon Market. These founding Core Contributors aimed to unite their diverse experience – in carbon markets, technology, finance, sustainability accounting and blockchain – as part of a single mission, in order to solve bottlenecks in scaling climate finance globally. In 2022, KlimaDAO launched its carbon retirement aggregator, enabling individuals and organizations to permissionlessly offset their carbon footprints. In 2023, KlimaDAO spun out Carbonmark, a Web2-focused platform providing an access point to the blockchain-enabled carbon market. KlimaDAO is a fundamental techno-economic primitive that aims to drastically improve the operational dynamics of the Carbon Market by increasing the effectiveness of capital deployed to impact investments.
