As the world gears up for the global climate strike, blockchain technology is being touted as a powerful tool to create real impact and make the world a better place. Operal, a Swiss gaming studio, is using blockchain technology to facilitate impact creation during climate strikes through its ClimateCandy mobile game.
With every level of the game, players are rewarded with retirements of nature-based solutions carbon credits, which are tracked and validated through blockchain technology. This ensures that the impact created by players is transparent and credible, and that there is no double counting of impact.
“We believe that everyone can make a difference in the fight against climate change, regardless of their financial means,” said Operal President of the Board Toni Caradonna. “Through ClimateCandy, we hope to inspire gamers around the world to take action and join the global ClimateStrike in making a positive impact on the planet.”
Operal’s ClimateCandy game provides a unique opportunity for people to create impact even if they don’t have money to donate. The game rewards players with impact for watching ads, generating revenue that is directed towards real-world impact. The platform’s innovative features also ensure that gamers are creating tangible impact and are rewarded accordingly.
The ClimateCandy game is already a huge success, with over 100,000 downloads in the first month and more than 1,000 tons of CO2 retired. With the success of the game, Operal is hoping to create a buy pressure on the carbon market so that avoidance and reduction becomes more attractive than compensation.
By combining the power of blockchain technology and gaming, Operal is providing a unique and effective way for people to get involved in the global climate strike and create real impact. With the world facing an urgent climate crisis, the use of innovative technologies like blockchain has the potential to make a real difference and create a more sustainable future for all.
