Green Manifesto 
A Smart Contract with Planet Earth
Going carbon-negative in 2022, and climate positive beyond that. #PolygonGoesGreen
Green Blockchain Summit 2022
The open forum for a decentralized collective of environmentalists,
developers, and entrepreneurs to come together and ensure long-term
sustainability across web3, and beyond.
29 September • Virtual • Open to All
The Green Manifesto
Freedom is at the center of the Web3 ethos. Since the Enlightenment,
the concern around liberty has been with oppression inflicted on
people by other people. But climate change enters the stage as a
powerful non-human actor that threatens to exacerbate all the existing
injustices and introduce new ones. If we are serious about changing
the world for the better, that’s something we simply cannot ignore.
