Vision
KlimateNet Groups
We engage members to interact within one or more groups relevant to them on the KlimateNet App. Groups span across various disciplines, industries and/or innovative solutions. Groups are activated by their members and a KlimateNet facilitator. Members create these groups to answer their needs and interests.
KlimateNet's focus is to promote activities that are engaged in removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere but other communities who concentrate on reducing CO2e emissions or any other relevant climate change innovation are welcome too.
On the App members can connect and join or create projects within each group.
KlimateNet
K-Score
We reward the impact of active members with incentives called the K-Scores. These scores are created by KlimateNet and allocated to members who have contributed to the growth and the positive impact of projects and the KlimateNet network. These K-Scores offer significant benefits within the KlimatNet network. See here for more details about
K-Score benefits.
PARTNERS
KlimateNet partners are active members who contribute to one or more communities and who intend to create action groups (AG) with other members. KlimateNet facilitators and team support them and invite them to present their mission and to communicate what they need and what they can offer to community members. Feel free to contact us if you would like to become a partner or know organisations that would benefit from partnering with KlimateNet.
