ClimateDataPool at Apollo 🌌

Germinated at HackFS, our ClimateDataPool project has been invited to continue at the Apollo hackathon. Organized by the Kernel Fellowship, coordinated via Gitcoin, and sponsored by Filecoin, Apollo promises to be an intense and rich ecosystem event.

The hackathon runs for a month and a half, from 1 Sept - 15 Oct 2020.

For framing, this was the description of our project in the Apollo application:

ClimateDataPool is a project to unite the reporting of all the nations that support the Paris Climate Accord. We'll build a PoC of an IPFS/Filecoin-based file management app for sharing climate data. Future users are civil servants and researchers; the UN is the intended host.

Our experience in HackFS is documented in a blog post, ClimateDataPool at HackFS.
