  • Global Carbon Reward with Dr Delton Chen

    100 trillion US dollars needed to stabilize the climate. How will we pay for it?


    Better Worlds Podcast hosted by Vivi Lin  

    In this episode, Dr Delton Chen (Brisbane, Australia) joins host Vivi Lin (Shanghai, China) in a frank discussion about web3, the limits of decentralized finance, carbon markets, and the Global Carbon Reward; a policy based upon Central Bank Digital Currencies to reduce and remove carbon at the speed and scale needed to stabilize the climate. It could cost $100+ trillion this century — who will pay for it?

    # About the Guest

    Dr Delton Chen founded the Global Carbon Reward initiative in 2013. Mr Chen is a qualified civil engineer and geo-hydrologist, and he holds a Ph.D. in engineering from the University of Queensland, Australia. Delton did his doctoral research on the hydrology of a coral cay in the Great Barrier Reef, and he has 20 years of combined experience in groundwater management, environmental impact assessment, geothermal energy and climate mitigation. Delton is a thought-leader in the development of public policies based on Central Bank Digital Currencies, and is a member of the Blockchain Climate Institute. Delton founded the “Global Carbon Reward” initiative to help reduce and remove carbon at the speed and scale that are needed to stabilize the climate and meet the 2015 Paris Agreement. Delton believes that the Global Carbon Reward can fill the funding gap for climate mitigation and help protect communities and ecosystems from the ravages of climate change and over-consumption.

  • DAO Power for Ukraine 2022 with Yev Muchnik

    6.5 Million people displaced in Ukraine. Can Web3 tech and DAOs mitigate catastrophic loss and impact?


    Better Worlds Podcast hosted by Paul Michael Mutz

    # About the Guest

    Yev Muchnik is an experienced corporate and securities attorney with a focus on early and growth stage, mission-forward technology companies.  She is a founding partner of Launch Legal, a Denver, Colorado headquartered law firm and Of Counsel at Jason Wiener, P.C.

    Ms. Muchnik has been a leader in helping create legal frameworks for Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO’s).  She has written extensively on the Colorado DAO co-op.  She believes that just as startups from all over the world choose Delaware as a preferred jurisdiction for incorporation, the same will be true for DAO’s in Colorado under the Limited Cooperative Association (LCA) structure.  One does not need to reside in Colorado, or even the United States, to form a Colorado LCA4, making it even more appropriate for global decentralized networks

    The LCA is a hybrid between a limited liability company (LLC) and a corporation. It is an entity built on the law of unincorporated entities. Like LLCs, it allows for investor members, returns on investment to patrons and non-patrons, and voting rights for investors, while adhering to cooperative principles. Where it differs from an LLC is in the distribution of financial returns based on patronage activity, voting based on membership (one-member, one vote) or based on patronage, which allows for the integration of DAO based governance principles, such as rage quitting and quadratic voting.

    Ms. Muchnik was not only selected to lead-off the launch of Better World’s podcast series because of her expertise in Web3 and DAO structures, but also because she is a Ukrainian-American that is one of the founders of Ukraine United DAO, a DAO aims to support the buildout of web3 products and services to assist during this crisis and future such crises, which includes a hackathon called “Hack for Ukraine.” Ms. Muchnik has also worked with Ukraine DAO and Unchain Fund to raise and deploy cryptocurrency directly to those affected by the war.  Better Worlds is proud to support the launch of Ukraine United DAO as a fitting example of the Power of the DAO to help build a better world.
