AI agents can now retire real carbon, and we're paying builders to prove it.
Introducing the Klima Community Hackathon: a 4-week sprint on
@base to build carbon retirement tooling and use it.
The team that retires the highest value of real carbon credits wins 70,000 kVCM.
The unlock: a live x402 endpoint in front of Klima's Retirement Aggregator. Discover โ quote โ retire carbon over a simple HTTP API, pay per call in USDC, no keys or accounts. Agents can retire carbon autonomously โ facilitated by
@PayAINetwork.
Build anything that makes retirement easier, cheaper, faster, or more transparent: retire-on-action bots, wallet integrations, onchain integrations, gamified apps.
Web3 or fully Web3-abstracted, with a bonus multiplier for tools that keep retiring after the event.
Scoring runs on
@carbonmarkcom: every beneficiary address gets a public retirement page that doubles as your live leaderboard.
