Climate Compass
Navigate the Future of Climate
The problem Climate Compass solves
Climate Compass
Climate Compass tackles two key problems:
-
Limited Accessibility of Climate Data: Climate data is often complex, scattered across various sources, and not readily available to the public. This makes it difficult for individuals and organizations to understand climate trends and their potential impact.
-
Lack of Engagement with Climate Action: Many people are concerned about climate change but struggle to find ways to take meaningful action. Traditional methods of climate action awareness can feel distant or overwhelming.
How Climate Compass Addresses These Issues
Climate Compass offers a user-friendly platform with the following functionalities:
Data Aggregation and Insights
Climate Compass gathers data from various reliable sources and presents it in an understandable way. This allows users to explore historical climate trends, analyze potential future scenarios, and gain insights into the impact of climate change on different regions.
Prediction Markets
The platform offers prediction markets where users can make predictions about future climate events or the effectiveness of environmental policies. This gamifies climate action and allows users to potentially earn rewards while learning more about climate science.
User Participation and Collective Intelligence
Climate Compass encourages user participation through prediction markets and potentially even data contribution via IoT sensors (depending on the platform's development stage). This fosters a sense of community and leverages collective intelligence to improve the accuracy of climate predictions.
Overall, Climate Compass empowers individuals and organizations to understand climate change, participate in shaping a more sustainable future, and contribute to a data-driven approach to climate action.
Challenges we ran into
- lack of test tokens to pay gas fees on cardona: to solve that problem we developed on local or on other blockchains
- Smarts contracts worked on Polygon Main net and on local runtime but on Polygon zkEVM we got a lot of problems and that was not working: we didn't solve all the errors but changing solidity compiler version and remove some functions make smart contracts work. We tried to develop simpler smart contracts and made a lot of local tests.
