Thanks to the incredible leadership of Jonathan, Gwyn, and Zaven , and the hard work of developers like you, our app has captured images of over 7 million trees , empowering thousands of planters in the most remote corners of the globe! We’re enabling offline users to take thousands of tree images on some of the world’s most basic phones and upload them from incredibly remote areas. Seriously, what an achievement!

But here’s the thing: there’s still space for a trillion trees on this planet, and a billion people are still living near the poverty line. Our mission? We’re not even close to done yet.

If you’re still passionate about making a difference, now is the time! Our next sprint, led by the amazing Amrita , is gearing up, and we’d love to have you jump back in and contribute.

Interested in participating? Simply reach out to Amrita or Cynthia to get started and learn more about how you can help!

About GREENSTAND

Location:

721 Depot Drive, ANCHORAGE, AK 99501, US

Mission Statement

Greenstand is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization developing open-source technology to address climate change and alleviate poverty through digitizing environmental goods and services. We are made up of about 505 contributors across the globe. Our Treetracker app verifies and tracks individual trees, thus creating transparency in the reforestation sphere. Organizations and donors can locate individual trees and trade their ecological impact. By facilitating ownership of trees and their ecological services, Greenstand allows for tree-growing organizations to stay accountable.

Description

Greenstand develops mobile technology for better forestation techniques. Through our Treetracker app, rural smallholder farmers in some of the most remote communities on the planet are able to earn a sustainable income by planting, caring for, and tracking trees. Each tree grower takes a geotagged photo of their tree and uploads it to the Treetracker’s verification system, where Greenstanders verify that each photographed tree is alive and growing. Verified trees are digitized as Impact Tokens, which can be traded or sold among other Impact Wallet users within the Treetracker app.

Nasiyan was one of our first Treetracker. A single mother living with extreme visual and hearing impairments, she could barely afford to keep food on the table for herself and her three sons. However, since she began growing and tracking trees with Greenstand, her life has been looking up. Her young forest has become a small biodiversity hotspot, and with the income she has earned from tracking trees, she can now afford to send her boys to school.

Are you interested in helping us fight climate change and extreme poverty? We’re interested in you! Please check out our open opportunities or shoot us an email at info@greenstand.org. We can’t wait to hear from you!
