| Description | Tackling major societal challenges often requires a significant level of organizational novelty. One such recent example is Klima DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) that seeks to transform voluntary markets through the adoption of carbon credits. DAOs rely on self-executing rules and have a high level of decentralization. By leveraging blockchain and related technologies, Klima DAO offers innovative solutions to universal problems of organizing in both its governance and product delivery. Blockchain tools enable Klima DAO to operate uniquely, allowing for rapid scaling while maintaining decentralized governance and promoting transparent carbon credit trading with low transaction fees. As such, Klima DAO may serve as a model for future organizations in search of greater transparency and flatter governance structures. |
