Challenge Area:
Deforestation
Problem Statement:
Unverified land ownership fuels illegal logging in protected areas.
Solution Concept:
A blockchain-based land registry (e.g., EOS) for transparent ownership records. Smart contracts restrict unauthorized land use.
Expected Impact:
Reduces deforestation by 20%, preserving 10,000+ hectares annually.
Next Steps:
Develop a PoC with EOS, preprocess land data, and create API docs.
Challenge Area:
Deforestation prevention
Problem Statement:
Illegal logging contributes to deforestation, with limited tools to verify timber origins.
Solution Concept:
A blockchain-based timber tracking system where each log is tagged with a unique ID, tracked on-chain from forest to market. Smart contracts verify legal sourcing.
Expected Impact:
Reduces illegal logging, protects forests, and promotes sustainable forestry practices.
Next Steps:
Build a PoC with a timber tracking smart contract, integrate a tagging system, and create a verification interface.
