Hello dear Cardano community we are Nora and Benedict from Benedict Rose Crypto Mining and today we would like to introduce you our Stake Pool BRKB and tell you a bit about our motivation.
The world is on fire!
The topic is not new but still obviously not enough is being done about the forest dying and the related consequences are noticeably growing worse every year. The forest, which is vital for the world, is dying at a rapid pace and only we all have the opportunity to change this.
I do not want to go into too much detail here but nevertheless it is my goal to sensitize one or the other.
Causes for the destruction of the forests
The biggest cause is primarily air pollution from exhaust gases such as nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide. These pollutants dissolve in rain and lead to acid rain. This acid rain destroys important nutrients in the soil. Another cause is, among others, the massive use of nitrogen fertilizers in agriculture or the use of manure from factory farming. This fertilizer makes the trees grow fast but has the big disadvantage that the trees are less resistant against over diseases and parasites.
Other environmental influences such as the climatic changes in the world also contribute massively to the damage of the forests. Trees are being torn out of their roots by increasingly violent storms.
Increasingly severe and prolonged periods of heat and the resulting drought are also a major threat to our forests. Especially in Germany, fast-growing conifers were planted after the war, even in areas where they are not native. The high temperatures make the spruces very vulnerable to bark beetles and other parasites. There are hardly any real mixed forests here in Germany.
Less forest leads to longer heat periods, less habitat for animals, less storage of CO2 - a devil circle is emerging that we must break.
Our task
We still have the chance to make a difference and we will do so, and everyone has the opportunity to do so within their own limits.
Initially we will focus on our forests in Germany and donate money monthly for reforestation, forest conversion, forest protection and forest regeneration. Initially, our donations will go to plant-my-tree.de. Nora and I will then choose the places which should be supported.
In the time of 2022 we want to introduce a voting system where the community can vote where the money for the donations goes. However, we will select projects from all over the world. How much money flows where will of course be presented transparently on our homepage
Our motivation
Since we both like to hike and the sight when strolling through the woods is always a sad sight, it was also time for us to change something. With my affinity for technology has ultimately led us to think about the blockchain of Cardano and the “climate-friendly” proof-to-stake process to give a chance.
We are particularly excited about the possibility of that Cardano is being able to make supply chain management transparent. This is all still in its infancy but it has huge potential. It is an important step in the right direction to balance the financial imbalance in this world a little bit.
Our homepage is currently still being updated to eliminate errors.
On Twitter we will keep you up to date. Furthermore, a Telegram profile will follow.
