Research & Impact​

Eight Forms of Capital​

Green Goods uses a holistic framework for impact measurement:

  1. Living Capital: Biodiversity, ecosystems
  2. Material Capital: Physical resources
  3. Financial Capital: Money and assets
  4. Social Capital: Relationships, community
  5. Intellectual Capital: Knowledge, skills
  6. Experiential Capital: Wisdom, practices
  7. Spiritual Capital: Meaning, purpose
  8. Cultural Capital: Traditions, identity

Origin: From Ethan Roland and Gregory Landua's work in regenerative design.

Application in Green Goods:

  • Actions tagged by relevant capitals
  • Assessments measure across all capitals
  • Holistic impact tracking

User Research​

User Personas​

Gardener: Maria

  • Community volunteer
  • Uses smartphone primarily
  • Limited tech experience
  • Needs simple, offline-capable tools

Operator: David

  • Community coordinator
  • Manages local restoration project
  • Web3 familiar
  • Needs efficient review tools

Evaluator: Dr. Chen

  • Environmental researcher
  • Needs verifiable data
  • Comfortable with APIs
  • Values transparency

Design Principles​

1. Mobile-First​

Why: Regenerative work happens in the field, not at desks.

How: Touch-optimized UI, camera-centric, minimal typing.

2. Offline-Capable​

Why: Remote areas lack reliable connectivity.

How: Local-first storage, background sync, resilient design.

3. Simple Over Complex​

Why: Reduce barriers to impact documentation.

How: MDR workflow (3 steps), clear language, guided flows.

4. Transparent & Verifiable​

Why: Build trust with funders and community.

How: On-chain attestations, public data, open source.

5. Community-Governed​

Why: Local communities know their needs best.

How: Operator validation, garden autonomy, no central authority.
