Introduction

The era we are living in is quite unique. Scientists keep reminding us and no

one can ignore it; that life and all of its multitude of diversity is crumbling away. While we are undoubtedly facing the 6th mass extinction (as of today 1million out of 8million animal and plant species are currently threatened with extinction), we only have a short window of time to change things... and it is closing quickly.

We need to find a balance, a peaceful way of living together between humans, animals and nature.

It is, however, difficult to know how to contribute to the protection of our biodiversity, on a small scale, while making a collective, inclusive fight that brings us closer to others.

While technology alone cannot solve all of our problems related to the loss of biodiversity, it can be one of the most effective ways to better connect us and fight together.

If the future is going to integrate the metaverse, then the real universe, the world we live in, must not be erased. On the contrary, it must be defended, protected, regenerated. And it is important that technology is a tool used for serving the common good.

It is with this in mind that we have created the Oregen project: unique NFT collectives to participate in the protection of biodiversity and together stimulate the mobilization of more and more people.
