Udaan is a crowdfunding smart contract with a twist. It is a smart contract built on Ethereum in solidity language that can be readily deployed on any existing blockchain supporting Ethereum like Shardeum, Polygon etc. The change we added to the age old crowd funding systems is a way to incentivize the projects that help in environmental educations as well as reducing carbon footprint and hence helping in managing the climate crisis. Udaan – A project by LoopBreakers aims to support every noble cause by providing a platform to fund the cause but additionally also educate people to work towards a greener Earth by prioritizing the causes/ startup projects that work towards the similar goal Features include: Decentralised System Trustless crowd fundraiser Rewarding to the contributors Supportive to nature friendly startups Deployable on polygon, ethereum, sharedum Globally, the average carbon footprint is closer to 4 tons. To have the best chance of avoiding a 2℃ rise in global temperatures, the average global carbon footprint per year needs to drop to under 2 tons by 2050. Scientists first began to worry about climate change toward the end of the 1950s and has been since an existing segment to work upon. Also as of 2022, a total of 80,152 startups had been officially recognized by DPIIT. Though crowdfunding isn’t limited to funding a startup but when it comes to funding for such a cause, why not to filter out those that also support a healthier environment for the future generation especially when doing so could educate people to come up with better and smarter ideas
