Bridging the World with 101RE.org

As a Swiss non-profit organization, 101RE.org unites a global network of non-profit organizations from the US, France, UK, and beyond, driving sustainability with the 1001RE token and empowering communities worldwide to build a circular, resilient future.

About 101RE.org

101RE.org is a Swiss-registered non-profit organization serving as a global hub that brings together sustainability-focused organizations from across the world. We operate as an umbrella entity, gathering and coordinating the efforts of multiple non-profit partners from the United States, France, United Kingdom, and many other countries around the globe.

Our mission transcends continental boundaries, creating a holistic worldwide movement for sustainability. Through Web3 venture studios and innovative token systems, we connect communities, initiatives, and resources to drive meaningful environmental and social change on every continent.

What began as an Africa-Europe connection has evolved into a global movement with partners and projects spanning Asia, the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Oceania, united by a common purpose: eliminating waste, restoring ecosystems, and empowering communities through the transformative power of "RE" actions.

Our Six Pillars of Sustainability

Discover how our framework for action drives positive change in communities and ecosystems across the globe, from urban centers to rural landscapes.

R Circular Economy & Resource Efficiency

This pillar keeps resources in use for as long as possible through practical solutions:

  • Recycle – Process waste materials into new products, like turning plastic bottles into clothing fibers in India.
  • Reuse – Utilize items multiple times, such as reusable bags replacing single-use plastics in grocery stores.
  • Reduce – Minimize waste, like a zero-waste restaurant in California composting food scraps.
  • Repair – Fix broken items, such as a community repair café in London mending bicycles.
  • Refurbish – Restore used items to good condition, e.g., refurbishing second-hand fridges and TVs.
  • Remanufacture – Rebuild products, like remanufacturing car engines with reused parts in Detroit.
  • Repurpose – Assign new functions to old objects, such as turning shipping pallets into furniture in Kenya.
  • Recover – Extract energy from waste, such as biogas plants in Germany converting food waste into power.

Real-World Use Case: Adjoint EKW, one of our US-based partners, refurbishes second-hand fridges, TVs, and other equipment and ships them to Cameroon, reducing e-waste while providing affordable technology to rural communities. Meanwhile, a Brazilian cooperative recycles plastic waste into construction materials, and a Japanese initiative salvages materials from demolished buildings. All these global efforts earn 1001RE tokens through www.101re.org for verified circular economy actions that span multiple continents.

E Environmental Restoration & Biodiversity

This pillar restores nature and combats ecological decline with actionable steps:

  • Reforest – Plant trees to restore forests, like Brazil's Amazon reforestation projects.
  • Rewild – Return land to a natural state, such as rewilding Scotland's Highlands with native species.
  • Revegetate – Restore plant life, like revegetating mining sites in Australia.
  • Regreen – Reintroduce greenery, such as urban rooftop gardens in Singapore.
  • Rehydrate – Restore water to dry landscapes, like rainwater harvesting in Rajasthan, India.
  • Recarbonize – Increase carbon storage, such as soil restoration in Ethiopia's farmlands.
  • Replenish – Restore resources, like replenishing fish stocks in overfished Pacific waters.
  • Restore – Revive ecosystems, such as wetland restoration in Louisiana.

Real-World Use Case: In Indonesia, our local NGO partners work with farmers to reforest degraded hillsides, planting native trees to prevent erosion and restore habitats for endangered orangutans. Simultaneously, an Australian initiative revegetates former mining sites, while a French organization leads wetland restoration in partnership with communities across multiple continents. All participants earn 1001RE tokens via www.101re.org for their verified environmental restoration efforts, creating a global network of ecosystem regeneration projects.

D Sustainable Design & Innovation

This pillar rethinks how we build and innovate for sustainability:

  • Rethink – Challenge norms, like designing modular phones to reduce e-waste.
  • Redesign – Modify systems, such as redesigning packaging for biodegradability in Europe.
  • Reimagine – Innovate solutions, like reimagining urban transport with electric buses in China.
  • Reinvest – Fund sustainability, such as reinvesting profits into solar farms in Morocco.
  • Recondition – Improve products, like reconditioning old machinery for extended use.
  • Reengineer – Adapt systems, such as reengineering supply chains for lower emissions.
  • Rebuild – Construct sustainably, like rebuilding schools with recycled materials in Haiti.
  • Reform – Change systems, such as reforming waste management in South Africa.

Real-World Use Case: A Dutch partner organization redesigns shipping containers into modular, energy-efficient homes for disaster relief, deploying them globally in regions prone to natural disasters. Meanwhile, our Mexican collaborators develop biodegradable packaging from agave waste, and a UK-based initiative creates low-cost water filtration systems from local materials for communities in Southeast Asia. These diverse innovations are connected through www.101re.org, with contributors and builders earning 1001RE tokens for their role in sustainable design that benefits communities worldwide.

C Community & Social Well-being

This pillar uplifts people and communities through sustainable practices:

  • Revitalize – Restore prosperity, like revitalizing a rural economy with green jobs.
  • Rejuvenate – Improve well-being, such as cleaner air from reduced waste burning.
  • Reinforce – Strengthen initiatives, like reinforcing local sustainability programs.
  • Reintegrate – Revive traditions, such as reintegrating traditional farming in Peru.
  • Reestablish – Restore connections, like linking urban and rural communities.
  • Reassess – Evaluate practices, such as reassessing consumption habits in cities.
  • Reallocate – Distribute equitably, like reallocating resources to underserved areas.
  • Reconsider – Reflect on choices, such as choosing repaired goods over new ones.

Real-World Use Case: In South Africa, one of our community initiatives trains unemployed youth to repair and redistribute donated bicycles, improving mobility and creating jobs. Similarly, a Canadian organization runs intergenerational knowledge-sharing programs that reconnect indigenous elders with youth to preserve traditional ecological practices, while our Italian partners develop community gardens in urban food deserts. All these diverse, global efforts earn 1001RE tokens via www.101re.org, fostering a worldwide network of community-centered sustainability initiatives that bridge cultures and generations.

A Climate Action & Economic Transition

This pillar drives systemic change for a resilient future:

  • Revive – Restore systems, like reviving local economies with sustainable practices.
  • Reorganize – Shift structures, such as reorganizing trade for lower emissions.

  • Respect – Honor values, like respecting indigenous land rights in projects.
  • Reward – Incentivize efforts, like rewarding climate-friendly innovations.
  • Reformulate – Develop models, such as circular economic policies in cities.
  • Reoptimize – Improve efficiency, like optimizing energy use in factories.

Real-World Use Case: In India, a cooperative supported by our network reskills textile workers to operate solar-powered looms, reducing emissions and transitioning the industry to clean energy. Simultaneously, our partners in Chile develop community-owned renewable energy projects, while a US-based initiative trains former coal miners for jobs in clean tech. These global economic transition efforts are coordinated through www.101re.org, with participants earning 1001RE tokens for verifiable climate action, creating a worldwide tapestry of sustainable economic transformation.

S Renewable Energy & Sustainable Consumption

This pillar powers sustainability through energy and resource use:
