BIOBOON MANIFESTO

PREAMBLE

We, the Bioboon community, recognize the existential importance of intact forest ecosystems for the survival of our planet and future generations. This manifesto defines the immutable principles by which all Bioboon forests are managed, protected and developed.

Our guiding principle: Greed becomes the engine for nature conservation – but only under strict adherence to ecological principles.

ARTICLE I: NATURE

“Inviolability of the Natural Order”

§ 1.1 Nature First

  • Nature must not be destroyed. Areas under this manifesto must be restored to their natural state and allowed to thrive largely without human interference.
  • Irreversible: Once placed under Bioboon protection, areas can never again be used for destructive purposes.

§ 1.2 Natural Succession

  • Forests must be allowed to develop according to their own natural laws.
  • Human intervention is only permitted to protect against external threats or to restore natural processes.

§ 1.3 Protection from Exploitation

  • Commercial logging is completely prohibited.
  • Mining, infrastructure development or other destructive activities are categorically forbidden.
  • These prohibitions apply for all time and cannot be revoked.

ARTICLE II: BIO (BIODIVERSITY)

“Promotion and Conservation of Species Diversity”

§ 2.1 Biodiversity Obligation

  • Biomass and biodiversity must be preserved and promoted. Soils, flora and fauna shall develop naturally.
  • Active measures to increase species diversity are not only permitted but desired.

§ 2.2 Habitat Development

  • Various habitats (clearings, water sources, deadwood areas) must be promoted.
  • Invasive species may be removed if they threaten ecological balance.

§ 2.3 Monitoring and Documentation

  • The development of biodiversity must be continuously monitored and documented.
  • Scientific research to promote species diversity is expressly encouraged.

ARTICLE III: GREENHOUSE GASES

“Climate Protection through Natural CO2 Sequestration”

§ 3.1 CO2 Storage Maximization

  • Greenhouse gas sinks arise through plant growth and soil renewal.
  • Carbon sequestration must be maximized through appropriate measures.

§ 3.2 Soil Protection

  • Soils as the most important CO2 storage must be protected and improved.
  • Soil compaction and erosion must be prevented.

§ 3.3 Long-term Sequestration

  • CO2 sequestration must be permanent – not only above ground in trees, but also underground in soils and root systems.

ARTICLE IV: MANAGEMENT

“Sustainable, Nature-based Forest Stewardship”

§ 4.1 Permitted Activities

  • Nature-based management is possible and must be conducted sustainably.
  • Examples: hunting, selective tree removal, traditional livestock grazing.
  • All activities must serve the ecosystem or at least not harm it.

§ 4.2 Sustainability Principle

  • Use must never exceed the forest’s regenerative capacity.
  • Extraction must always be less than natural growth.

§ 4.3 Traditional Practices

  • Centuries-old, sustainable forms of use are permitted and encouraged.
  • Modern, industrial methods are fundamentally prohibited.

§ 4.4 Economic Benefit

  • Sustainable management must be economically viable.
  • Revenues flow into further forest development and Bioboon token dividends.

ARTICLE V: SOCIAL

“Forest as Recreation Space for People”

§ 5.1 Public Access

  • Bioboon areas shall be available to people as recreation space.
  • Access is generally free, as long as it does not harm nature.

§ 5.2 Education and Research

  • Forests serve as living classrooms for environmental education.
  • Scientific research is encouraged and actively promoted.

§ 5.3 Community Engagement

  • Local communities are involved in decisions.
  • Bioboon token holders have a voice in important decisions.

§ 5.4 Intergenerational Justice

  • Today’s decisions must be made in the interest of future generations.
  • Short-term gains must not lead to long-term damage.

ARTICLE VI: PERMANENCE

“Eternal Protection and Immutability”

§ 6.1 Eternity Clause

  • Bioboon areas remain “forever” bound to this manifesto.
  • Minimum duration: 100 years, with automatic renewal.

§ 6.2 Tradability without Endangerment

  • Only Bioboon assets can be traded.
  • The physical forest and its protection provisions remain inviolable.

§ 6.3 Irreversibility

  • These protection provisions cannot be revoked or diluted.
  • Even with changes to the Bioboon structure, forest protection rules remain.

§ 6.4 Legal Succession

  • These provisions are binding for all future owners, managers and users.

ARTICLE VII: GOVERNANCE

“Administration and Enforcement”

§ 7.1 Foundation Mandate

  • The Bioboon Foundation is the guardian of this manifesto.
  • It must monitor and enforce compliance.

§ 7.2 Scientific Advisory Board

  • An independent advisory board of ecologists, forest scientists and climate experts oversees compliance.
  • Decisions must be scientifically sound.

§ 7.3 Transparency

  • All decisions and their justifications must be publicly documented.
  • Regular reports on forest conditions are mandatory.

§ 7.4 Conflict Resolution

  • In case of conflicts of interest, ecological concerns always take precedence over economic ones.

ARTICLE VIII: ENFORCEMENT

“Sanctions and Protective Measures”

§ 8.1 Violations

  • Violations of this manifesto lead to immediate exclusion from the Bioboon system.
  • Damages must be compensated.

§ 8.2 Monitoring

  • Continuous monitoring through IoT sensors, satellites and regular inspections.
  • Whistleblower protection for those reporting violations.

§ 8.3 Legal Protection

  • This manifesto is enshrined in all legal documents.
  • International arbitration for cross-border conflicts.

ARTICLE IX: AMENDMENTS

“Evolution of the Manifesto”

§ 9.1 Improvements

  • The manifesto can only be strengthened in favor of nature conservation.
  • Relaxations are fundamentally excluded.

§ 9.2 Scientific Progress

  • New scientific findings may lead to stricter protection measures.
  • Best practices from other projects are adopted.

§ 9.3 Amendment Procedure

  • Amendments require 75% approval from Bioboon token holders.
  • Additionally, a scientific advisory board must confirm ecological improvement.

FINAL PROVISION

This manifesto is the foundation of all Bioboon activities. It stands above economic interests and short-term goals.

Our Promise: Every square meter of Bioboon forest will be protected, cared for and preserved for future generations according to these principles.

Our Mission: We create a system where protecting nature is more profitable than destroying it – but never at the expense of ecological integrity.

“In Bioboon we trust nature, which has the wisdom to heal itself – if we give it the space to do so.”
