<h2>Hello World! 🌊🐠✨</h2> <a href="https://linktr.ee/mesoreefdao" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MesoReefDAO</a> (Mesoamerican Reef DAO) is a Regenerative Coral Reef Science project that focuses on the creation of a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) of DeSci (Decentralized Science) that seeks to scale coral reef conservation efforts in the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System. <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmcpiDp3sBiJESWxLDWmXtfq8Wpht4xbqWHWo3zVosWKL4"> The Mesoamerican Reef is one of the most biodiverse and productive marine ecosystems in the world, providing crucial ecosystem services, such as coastal protection, fisheries, and tourism, to millions of people in the region. It stretches over 1,000 kilometers from the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico to the Bay Islands in Honduras (Fig 1). <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmY51bBh2CakufUVZzY2g93ak8Qh69afUzcNM1tjCdDHwi"><a href="https://www.wwfca.org/en/landscapes/mesoamerican_reef/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="ql-size-small">Fig 1.

The DAO believes that engaging local communities in conservation efforts is crucial for the long-term sustainability of the region (Fig 2). <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/Qme1cF5d7qTjpoHNvjKhmGBWYfspEL7nUJPpN1stN9mfjy"><a href="https://mesoreefdao.notion.site/What-is-MesoReefDAO-d8429c90fa8a47f58f42b61577fb1449" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="ql-size-small">Fig 2. MesoReefDAO General Framework.</a> MesoReefDAO is built on the Ethereum blockchain and is governed by a community of stakeholders who share a common interest in conserving and restoring the MAR. The DAO's governance structure is designed to be transparent, inclusive, and democratic, allowing anyone to participate and contribute to decision-making processes. The DAO's mission is to leverage the power of decentralized technologies to enable innovative solutions to the challenges facing the MAR. One of the key initiatives of MesoReefDAO is to develop a regenerative decentralized science (DeSci) offset program. The program will incentivize individuals and organizations to reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to MAR conservation efforts. The carbon offset credits will be tradable on the blockchain, creating a new market for carbon offsetting that provides transparent and traceable benefits to the environment. <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/Qmc71Equu18Jc1NVshkAb1TVbn9Qz7wgPy75D2nQR7nVZd"><a href="https://mirror.xyz/cryptobenthic%F0%9F%90%A0.eth/VPekPDF5fqOdbVPSwpRfqv0KimI_208fbTbq5eRGk_4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="ql-size-small">Fig 3. Six-layer framework (a-f) for “Web3” DeSci DAOs, adapted from Ding, et al., (2022).</a> Another important initiative is the creation of a coral reef restoration fund. The fund will support the development and implementation of coral reef restoration projects in the MAR region. The fund will be managed by the DAO's community and will be open to contributions from anyone who wants to support the conservation and restoration of the MAR. Overall, MesoReefDAO is a cutting-edge initiative that seeks to harness the power of decentralized technologies to address the urgent challenges facing the Mesoamerican Reef. By enabling a new paradigm of collaborative and inclusive governance, the DAO is creating a platform for innovation and experimentation that has the potential to transform the way we approach conservation and restoration efforts in the region and beyond (Fig 4). <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmVgDCd1BQSMuX1i34syUHuboCorSmN9pTPmEkFUK3JEWf"><a href="https://mirror.xyz/cryptobenthic%F0%9F%90%A0.eth/DKR1Atdy7qfbI1JfJFt8z1HVwDJe2TkLeu8cZow5wtU" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="ql-size-small">Fig 4.

Our community includes scientists, researchers, conservationists, marine enthusiasts, and individuals from various backgrounds and expertise. We believe that diversity is a strength, and by embracing different perspectives and knowledge, we can drive more innovative and effective solutions for coral reef conservation. We are committed to creating an environment where everyone's voice is heard, valued, and respected. Together, we strive to foster an inclusive space where collaboration and cooperation thrive, ensuring that we can make a meaningful and positive impact on the future of our oceans and coral reefs (Fig 5). <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmSs1CeZWvsUDAmWXbFyPHLRaQr3RmkBe7issMT4enHRR1">Fig 5.
