REAL WORLD ACTION
Working with the Rainforest Foundation US, each Hyperobject created or purchased on Basejump will protect a real-world area of Peruvian rainforest for a year, with an initial target of protecting four million acres at launch.
Support from gamers on Basejump and the wider ACTION community will help augment Rainforest Foundation US’ work safeguarding the Matses territory—an expansive area of over four million acres.
Proceeds will be used to implement conservation and monitoring efforts, including the construction of small guard posts along key river tributaries. These guard posts will help Matses communities monitor and regulate entry into their lands. Once the Matses territory is fully funded, we plan to level up our work with RFUS and expand to additional regions across the world.
As the Basejump and ACTION communities grow, so will our impact. By blending technology, gaming, culture and conservation, we’re working to fulfill a core promise of decentralized systems: helping people to organize in new ways and solve complex problems, establishing next generation rails for a better Internet, and a healthier planet.
