Dear friend,

June has been all about the 4 Rs at Kinder World:

🚫 Refusing
✂️ Reusing
⬇️ Reducing
♻️ Recycling

Jas and Morgana, also known as The Ginger and The Vegan, went on a 30 day Zero-Waste journey and it has finally come to an end.

What would have been a problematic ride for me (making my own coffee scrub?!), turned out to be very satisfactory for them.

Jas and Morgana faced their arch nemesis, the mighty Plastic, again and again. For those eager to venture the same journey, here are their top tips:

📆 Don't take "use by" and "best by" dates on food too seriously
⛔ Just say "no" to receipts, straws, plastic cups
🌴 Try the multi-dynamic power of coconut oil

Brazil is considered the world’s fifth-largest country in terms of both area and population, covering 60% of South America’s land mass. However, due to its large size, it faces complex environmental architecture with several challenges. The country has large reserves of biodiversity and is home to the world’s largest rainforest, the Amazon. The Brazilian Amazon represents 60% of Brazil’s territory and extends to more than 5 million km2.

One of the biggest challenges the Amazon has experienced is extensive deforestation as a result of the expanding agricultural industry. Despite the importance of the Amazon, deforestation levels are reaching a point of irreversibility. In addition, the lack of protection such as the creation of a cycle of deforestation, drought, and loss of biodiversity is amplifying climate change and its impacts.

These increasing environmental concerns are causing social implications. Threats to forest areas are threatening marginalized groups, such as family farmers, and indigenous and traditional populations.

Deforestation remains a complex problem along with difficult solutions. However, fortunately, a lot of people see the importance of the rainforest, especially in the nonprofit sector. Experts believe that tackling deforestation in the Amazon requires a new development vision for the region. Some of the current solutions focus on the importance of multi-stakeholder engagement in regard to monitoring, environmental control and accountability, land use, creation of protected areas, and promotion of sustainable production activities.

The nonprofit sector and businesses start acting when the government does not have the capacity to help. Charities are able to use their influence to advocate and lobby on political levels while also working closely with local Amazonian communities. Some of the best practices include lobbying for indigenous human and land rights, campaigning against destructive industries, or developing sustainable practices for farmers leading to efforts in the preservation of the Amazon! Businesses contribute by providing strong support to various non-profits.

As highlighted earlier, businesses are supporting non-profits in order to take action. A strong example of this is the Women Force NFT project. The Women Force NFT team partnered up with Kinder recently with the purpose of selling NFTs and donating 40% of their total sales to support the Amazon Rainforest and its populations. Besides helping the environment, the project also provides web3 education, art mentorship, digital arts, and a trip to Brazil among other benefits to its holders.

For more information on the Women Force NFT project, join their project here!

In addition, we will be presenting our United Action in collaboration with the Women Force NFT next month, consisting of the very best-performing charities that are dedicated to preserving the Amazon!

Tech For Good
The key goal behind this collaboration is to preserve the rainforest by dedicating a big part of the revenue generated by the unique NFTs that will be sold.

Tech for Good can be defined as companies and their technologies, organizations, projects, or even individuals aiming to create a positive impact on the world around us.

Kinder has developed a 'transactions for good'- API to provide Web3 projects with the possibility to easily direct royalties to United Actions (collections of highly effective vetted charities) thus providing an automated opportunity for organizations and communities to make a real and positive impact on society.

WomenForce NFT
Women Force is a unique 7,236 NFT project generated from digital drawn elements and stored on the Ethereum Blockchain. The art has been inspired by the Amazon Rainforest and pays a tribute to the force of all Women. The vision of Women Force NFT has always consisted of creating strong and empowering NFT collections and to build a diverse community which raises the voice for important causes.

Kinder & Women Force NFT
An integral goal of the Women Force NFT project has been to make both a rewarding and empowering difference which is why they reached out to Kinder. At Kinder, we have two principal goals, transparency, and reliability. We have been able to create a unique vetting framework that evaluates organizations on how well they are solving the problems that we care about.

Through this collaboration, we strive to ensure that all donations will be dedicated to organizations that are fully vetted by Kinder and meet the high standards for transparency and accountability.

In the upcoming month, we will present our United Action in collaboration with Women Force NFT where we have bundled high-performing charities that work towards primarily ensuring the reforestation of rainforests. The Amazon collection will strongly support the charities and help make a positive impact in the conservation of the Amazon Rainforest!
