Explain your project idea (2,000 characters)
françaisREGULEUM is a startup of recycling and transformation of waste in biofuel and biogas.REGULEUM will launch recently the platform Universe corner (unicoin): reward your acts and lifestyle respectful of the environment. Earn one for the "green" steps you take to save the planet. ... Then use coins as currency to push your ecological behavior to the extreme.
The idea is simple: every time you return the batteries to a collection point or use plastic or paper in the right direction or when you participate in an event It is ecological (for example, clean the neighborhood, plant trees), or if you share information about green products and projects, we will reward you with a specific number of unicoins.
You can then spend the coins to receive sponsored gifts or uni-products from our partners, or exchange them on auctions for things that other users are willing to give (old refrigerator, television, sofa, etc.). ). This will add gamification to the problem of ecology economics and should stimulate people to contribute.
If we consider that 5% of the population are those who care about ecology and are ready to act for the cause - we should have about 700,000 users in Senegal, 15 million in Africa, 40 million in the EU and 350 million worldwide.
We plan to make money through advertisements, sponsors and coin exchanges.

I often used public transport to go to my training institute. I often observed people buying plastic water bottles or plastic drink bottles and throwing them in the street after use. That put me out of my mind and made me find a solution for this waste, which was becoming more and more of a danger and, above all, to change people's behavior in the face of this phenomenon: to grasp the problem at its source.Please explain how your selected topic areas are influenced, in the local context of your project (1,000 characters).
Climate change will profoundly affect agricultural and forestry production. The effects in terms of production potential will be very variable depending on the regions and plant cover. They may result in an overall trend of moderate stimulation in temperate climates and limited warming to 2 ° -3 ° C. Beyond this, as in low latitudes, excessive temperatures and increased frequency of droughts will lead to negative effects. These impacts will lead to adaptations, which will combine local changes in cropping or management systems, as well as geographic shifts in production systems. The actors in the field, who have already been able to observe significant changes as a result of recent warming, are fairly well prepared by adopting initiatives such as green energy consumption including biofuels, biogas ...Who will work alongside your organization in the project idea?
