Plume and Bioeconomy Launch Climate Partnership and Node to Mark UN World Environment Day

June 6, 2025

In celebration of UN World Environment Day, Plume, the first full-stack RWA (Real World Asset) blockchain and ecosystem, has named Bioeconomy as its official Green Partner and one of its Genesis Validators, marking a major milestone in its mission to bring environmental assets on-chain. 

Bioeconomy, a global leader in carbon markets and climate finance, will work with Plume to integrate a broad range of climate-related real world assets and strategies into the network. As part of this collaboration, Plume and Bioeconomy will launch a Nature Carbon RWA initiative to bring high-integrity carbon credits on-chain, including from one of the largest forest and wetland restoration and regrowth projects in the world. This will be complemented by additional environmental products and new mechanisms designed to enhance trust, access, and innovation in on-chain sustainability solutions. 

Bioeconomy is the only climate-focused entity selected as a Genesis Validator in Plume’s initial cohort, highlighting the network’s commitment to integrating environmental impact into the foundation of its ecosystem. $PLUME tokenholders will now be able to stake with the Bioeconomy validator to support climate solutions, with a portion of staking revenue allocated to climate-related initiatives. In addition, validators across the network will have the opportunity to offset emissions using verified carbon credits sourced from Bioeconomy’s global portfolio. 

As global demand for offsets and environmental products grows, this partnership offers a pathway to scale. The voluntary carbon market is projected to reach $100 billion by 2030 (Morgan Stanley) and $1 trillion by 2037 (Bloomberg New Energy Finance). Plume's infrastructure will enable users to purchase and retire climate assets on-chain, with validator incentives and decentralised mechanics supporting transparent, market-driven pricing. 

By positioning environmental assets as a core vertical within its RWA platform, Plume - alongside Bioeconomy - is paving the way for improved trust and participation in climate finance. 

“World Environment Day is the perfect moment to welcome Bioeconomy as our Green Partner and one of our Genesis Validators,” said Chris Yin, CEO of Plume Network. “We believe that sustainability should be embedded at the protocol level, and their expertise in climate solutions brings immediate value to our ecosystem. We’re excited that Plume tokenholders and validators can now support climate-positive outcomes.”

“Announcing our partnership with Plume on UN World Environment Day reflects our belief that real climate action needs to be woven into global systems, including blockchain,” said Dorjee Sun, CEO of Bioeconomy. “This isn’t just about bringing carbon credits on-chain - it’s about enabling the entire community, including validators, to actively support nature at scale. Plume is building the infrastructure to tokenise every real world asset, making them the premier platform for a new era of finance.” 

Bioeconomy joins a growing set of validators helping to secure the Plume network while advancing RWA adoption across sectors. With climate solutions gaining momentum across corporate, government, and financial sectors, the partnership highlights blockchain’s growing role in scaling credible, on-chain impact.

About Bioeconomy

Bioeconomy is a global leader in climate finance, seeking to assign market value to nature – biodiversity, rainforests, reefs, and other public goods essential to a functional economy. As RFK Jr. said, “The economy is a wholly owned subsidiary of the environment.” Our civilisation depends on critical nature services like pollination, rainfall, and climate regulation, yet these remain largely unpriced. It is partnering with Plume to tokenise real world assets such as emission reductions, carbon removals, and biodiversity assets, including from one of the largest forest and wetland restoration and regrowth projects in the world, home to the endangered Sumatran tiger. $PLUME staked with Bioeconomy will go towards its mission of supporting nature.
