Overview

There are many contributors to the climate crisis. Whether it's oceans depleted with marine life or hundreds of thousands of acres of rainforests burned every day, the enormity of it can feel helpless. Wondering where to start?

Planet Possible strives to give you a place to start. While no one person can do everything, everyone can do something. Daily actions, while they feel inconsequential, grow in impact with a community. Individuals. Schools. Workplaces. Corporations. We can build a global community and protect our only home. The clock is ticking and we are running out of time. Let's get started!

How it works

Planet Possible enables you to take climate action and advocacy within a community, making it both easy and social at the same time. Simply find an action based on your preferences in the app, share it with the Planet Possible community, and inspire others to get involved.

my role

I was the first person to join and help the founder during the early stages with ideas, defining the mission, and the brand identity, and bringing the product to life by designing an MVP mobile prototype. We are now at the testing stage with users to gather feedback that will validate or pivot our approach moving forward. I also helped scale the team to about 20 people which includes PhD scientists, engineers, designers, content creators, and folks in marketing.

It has been an exciting project to be a part of and I feel grateful that I can leverage my skills in technology to tackle climate change and build a passionate community, striving to save our planet and all those who thrive off of it.

Participating in Toronto’s COllision 2022 Start-up Impact Conference

We had a unique opportunity to participate in Collision, a 3-day conference in June that brings together the world’s best speakers, tech’s leading companies, and top members of the media to experience what Politico calls “the Olympics of tech”. We were given a booth where we could showcase what Planet Possible was all about to folks who wanted to learn more/were interested in networking/collaborating. In addition. we got to listen to some inspirational speakers in the climate-tech space such as Sophia Kiani (Founder & Climate Activist at Climate Cardinals) and investors/CEOs such as Bourhhan Yassin (CEO of Rainforest Connection), Alex Tveit (CEO & Founder of Sustainable Impact Foundation), who were both interested in advising Planet Possible and potentially even helping with securing funding.

The conference also offered Masterclasses from how to start your startup, all the way to how to secure funding and go potentially public with your idea. After the events of the day ended, there was an opportunity to mingle and relax at what they call “After Hours” events with some drinks, snacks, cool vibes, and good music.

It was an exhilarating three days filled with learning and meeting new founders, CEOs, and investors in the Climate and tech space. We left very inspired by all the people we had met and their solutions for tackling the climate crisis as a whole. In the future, we hope to participate in more conferences like these to learn, grow, and build a strong community in the climate tech space.

looking into the future

As of May 2022, we are looking to secure funding from VCs/ Investors preferably in the social impact sector. Interested in hearing our pitch/learning more? Feel free to shoot me a message, my door is always open.
