Salute Steemians, I have been working away from STEEM for a while, on a project that will hopefully largely benefit the community. I have already briefly talked about it earlier, but it's time to set the basic things straight to the public. 

I present to you eco+.

## What is eco+?


Eco+ is a system based on the wisdom of the crowd that fascilitates ecological and vegan activism. 

Library of ecological concepts, philosophy and research will be created and authors will be rewarded for their contribution.

An integrated market with products that have ecological proof, with the use of a decentralized consent-based system.


Below, a mockup I made that illustrates a general direction how the interface for the library will work, like an interactive swiss knife that gives you what you need when you need it.

**What problems will it solve?**

- transparency of food production

- lack of proof-of-ecology in the market

- access to ecological products for consumers
- the lack of a market platform for ecological growers

- the lack of a singular place on the web for information regarding ecological work



## PURPOSE:

to create an ever-growing ecological vegan community and economy


## PHASES:

1. Interactive interface for the STEEM blockchain restricted to ecological activism

2. Air drop of eco+ tokens to authors

3. Meritocratic distribution of coins

4. Sociocratic distribution of coins

5. Opening of the eco+ market

### PARTS: 

**THEORY**

- an organized interactive library made for ecologically-savvy authors

- a decentralized platform for ecological articles with integrated monetization

- topics:

       1. PERMACULTURE
       2. VEGANISM
       3. SOCIOCRACY

**PRACTICE**

- a world map that shows all physical eco+ projects
- will be used in the market to allow users to find ecological and cruelty free products

- allows for greater transparency of ecological work, all users consent that their projects can be physically checked up on by all other users.

- it will be easier to find volunteers for projects 

**MARKET**

- a market with only ecological products with sociocratic proof

- use case for eco+ coins - you will be able to buy ecological products for the coins you earned through ecological work (and people that buy your coins will be able to buy too)

If you are interested to be a part of the project in it's early stages, I welcome you to leave a comment below with your intentions - do you want to be a developer, an author or a popularizator? 

Also, be sure to follow this blog and @ecoplus, the official blog for the project.

With love, @freegardens.
