Code Green: Web3, Art, and Philanthropy Reform for Climate Change

Bitcoin, Web3, and nonfungible tokens (NFTs) have become platforms for activism, attracting individuals seeking solutions to global challenges. While most crypto protocols focus on finance, there are projects, like Code Green, that aim to address socioeconomic, environmental, and human rights issues using blockchain technology. Inna Modja, co-founder of Code Green, joined a podcast to discuss how the organization combines art and Web3 to advocate for a sustainable future.

Modja emphasized the importance of strategic and intentional projects in the Web3 space, cautioning against initiatives that prioritize profit extraction from the community. Although Code Green has engaged with NFTs, Modja clarified that they are not an NFT project. Instead, they have donated the NFTs they created to the community, believing that supporting social and climate justice does not require payment. The nonprofit side of Code Green is crucial, and most of their work is conducted through it.

Modja believes that art is a powerful tool for raising awareness and inspiring action. Code Green was involved in the philanthropic aspect of the World of Women NFT project, managing donations to various organizations. Through the sales of the second generation of World of Women NFTs, Code Green raised $2 million. To enhance fundraising tactics, Modja suggests collaborating with entities that potential donors are already connected to, channeling the raised funds to support different causes.

While Code Green does not sell NFTs to achieve their goals, they recognize the need for funding when they create an app. They prefer securing funding from larger organizations or entities rather than relying solely on the community. They did offer items for sale in The Sandbox game, with the proceeds going to nonprofits and organizations supporting gender equality and climate justice.
