Our initial goal is to expand our CO2e emission calculator across the entire Web3 space. Currently, our calculator is operational on the Ethereum and Krest networks, and we are actively developing a solution for the forthcoming Peaq network. \n\nWe invite you to visit and try our \ud83d\udc49 [calculator](https://carbon.mentholprotocol.com) \ud83d\udc47\n\ud83e\uddea\ud83d\udd2cYou can explore our detailed documentation at https://my.causal.app/models/204166/ to see how it functions, and our repo is at https://gitlab.com/menthol-protocol.\n![alt text](https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/611cf3f64a9c452f363b4c2c/662bca061ad22e44f3232962_cal2.png) \n\n\ud83d\udcb8We are committing 100% of the requested grant funds to expand our coverage across various blockchain networks and enhance the reach of sustainability projects within the ecosystem. Additionally, these funds will support the development of incentives and awareness programs. These initiatives will help projects and individuals understand the impacts of CO2e footprint and provide guidance on how to offset their carbon footprint in the Web3 world.\n\n![alt text](https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/611cf3f64a9c452f363b4c2c/662bc24e57e22d50baaa784f_photo_2024-04-26_18-02-34.jpg)\n\n\ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83d\udc69\u200d\ud83d\udc67\u200d\ud83d\udc66Our carbon footprint calculator will be open-source and will continuously improve alongside scientifically-based research, which will also be published. There are numerous scientific metrics and methodologies for calculating off-chain carbon footprints. However, both the web3 and non-web3 ecosystems are evolving rapidly, as are the methodologies for calculating non-avoidable emissions. We are dedicated to continue our efforts to keep up to date regarding these trend changes and improve our solution to the most optimal.

We have already started developing a project that creates a bridge between the web3 and non-web3 world by launching a partnership with a commercial bank with 12 million customers which will be utilised to encourage its web3 users to be involved in its non-web3 regenerative projects.

We are looking forward to solidifying our use case in the web3 space and making it possible for any web3 shareholder to have easy access to tools necessary to take climate action. As we are already creating projects and seeking projects that would smooth our transition from web3 to non-web3, as we are eager to offer these solutions that are also available and accessible for anyone interested in making an impact regarding the carbon footprint. Our roadmap is designed to capture this core idea of setting a strong use case in blockchain and growing stronger in all areas to offer easy solutions to make it effortless to take climate action.\n\n\ud83c\udf3fMenthol Protocol is dedicated to creating public goods and services starting and web3 space and expanding into web2 to offer easy-to-use and automated tools for anyone to take action in sustainability.

In order to strengthen our efforts, create more community engagement and raise awareness around sustainability we are planning to use all the funds we can raise, which will be a great way to escalate our endeavours.\n\n![alt text](https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/611cf3f64a9c452f363b4c2c/662bc091be5181c47edc14a0_GreenLink.jpg)\n\ud83c\udf31We are an 8-person strong team and plan to grow as we are motivated to expand our solution and spread sustainability efforts all across the blockchain ecosystem.
