SavePlanetEarth Token (Announcements)

SavePlanetEarth Community Update Dear SavePlanetEarth Community, We believe in keeping our community informed with honest and transparent updates, particularly during periods of significant change within the global carbon markets. Over the past year, the voluntary carbon market has experienced one of its most challenging periods. A combination of increased regulatory scrutiny, concerns over the quality of some legacy carbon credits, reduced corporate demand, geopolitical uncertainty, and delays in international climate policy has resulted in a significant downturn. Buyer confidence has weakened, project financing has slowed, and many project developers across the industry have postponed or cancelled new initiatives. Whilst these developments are disappointing, we believe they also present an opportunity for the market to reset and rebuild on stronger foundations, with greater transparency, scientific integrity, and independent oversight. At SavePlanetEarth, our strategy has not changed. Our focus remains on developing high-quality carbon methodologies, internationally recognised compliance frameworks, and governance systems that meet the expectations of regulators, independent auditors, and the global marketplace. Developing credible carbon methodologies is neither simple nor inexpensive. It requires years of work and significant investment in scientific research, technical specialists, legal and regulatory review, stakeholder consultations, independent validation and verification, registry development, software infrastructure, and ongoing governance before a single carbon credit can be issued. These are substantial investments that often go unseen, but they are essential to building a carbon market that is transparent, trusted, and capable of delivering genuine climate impact. We remain committed to making these investments because we believe that integrity and quality will define the future of environmental markets. We understand that every investor must make decisions based on their own circumstances. Some members of our community may decide that the current market conditions are no longer aligned with their investment objectives, and we fully respect that decision. Others may choose to remain with us and support our long-term vision. To those who continue this journey alongside us, we sincerely thank you for your patience, confidence, and continued belief in what we are building. Our commitment remains unchanged. We will continue progressing our compliance approvals, strengthening our governance, expanding our technical capabilities, and preparing for the next generation of high-integrity carbon markets. While nobody can predict exactly when market conditions will improve, we remain optimistic that confidence will return as stronger international standards, greater transparency, and higher-quality projects become the benchmark across the industry. When that happens, organisations that have invested in doing things properly will be well positioned. Until then, we will continue focusing on what matters most—building credible climate solutions that create measurable environmental impact while supporting communities and protecting nature. Thank you for your continued support and for being part of the SavePlanetEarth journey. The SavePlanetEarth Team

Closing Position PCS and SPE are advancing toward becoming a credible, compliance aligned infrastructure layer for high integrity carbon markets. The direction remains clear. From voluntary markets toward compliance markets, and from development toward scalable revenue generation. We appreciate the continued support from the community and encourage introductions to potential buyers, partners, and project developers who align with this direction.

SPE Anniversary Update – Growth & Positioning This update builds on our Q1 communication and reflects continued progress across compliance alignment, project pipeline expansion, and market positioning. Strategic Progress Over the past period, work has been heavily focused on ISO 17029 Validation and Verification Body assessments and readiness preparation. This has required full engagement on technical documentation, alignment, and external coordination, which has resulted in a slight delay in this update. This prioritisation was intentional, as compliance preparation remains the critical path toward unlocking CORSIA, ICVCM, and Article 6 pathways. This phase is foundational. It positions PCS not as a voluntary standard, but as a compliance grade infrastructure aligned with where the carbon market is heading. Expanding Project Pipeline The project pipeline continues to develop across multiple regions and sectors. -REDD+ Project in the Brazil Amazon with ongoing expansion discussions -Solar projects in Sri Lanka, Zambia, and South Africa -Waste to energy projects in Sri Lanka and Kosovo -Alternative fuel projects in South Africa -Mini hydro and large scale multilayer tree planting projects in Sri Lanka In parallel, there are active discussions with the TMZN Amazon project developer around carbon credit sales and expansion of land coverage to increase future issuance potential. Engagements with new project developers are ongoing for pre assessments of carbon generation potential, ensuring that incoming projects are structured to meet compliance grade requirements from the outset. Market Conditions Recent geopolitical developments, including the Iran conflict, have had a short term impact on carbon market activity, particularly within the Gulf region where a large portion of buyers are based. This has resulted in slower decision cycles and delayed procurement in the near term. However, this is a timing impact rather than a structural one. As conditions stabilise, demand is expected to shift more strongly toward high integrity, compliance aligned credits, reinforcing the positioning of PCS. Capital Deployment & Liquidity Liquidity has been deliberately deployed into key areas required to reach compliance grade readiness. -VVB and ISO 17029 and 14065 alignment work -Technical experts supporting methodologies and compliance submissions -Registry infrastructure, database systems, and API development -Legal and governance frameworks required for programme approvals PCS and SPE have been supported operationally over several years through internal commitment, and current resources are being allocated to accelerate progression toward regulatory recognition. This phase represents targeted infrastructure investment rather than ongoing operational expenditure. Addressing Community Questions Questions around liquidity and funding have been noted. Recent liquidity usage has been directed toward VVB work, ISO alignment, and compliance submissions, all of which are necessary to move PCS into regulated market frameworks. The current allocation is structured around defined milestones, and with the registry now complete and built to deliver a high level of transparency across issuance, tracking, and retirements, the focus shifts to activation. Once this phase is completed, revenues from project development, credit issuance, and registry activity are expected to flow back into the ecosystem. Timeline Outlook The pathway remains structured and sequential. Q2 to Q3 is expected to focus on submission and programme review phases Post approval phases will focus on onboarding projects, credit issuance, and scaling activity These processes are externally governed and milestone driven rather than time driven. Execution Model Operations continue with a lean structure, with resources prioritised toward the most critical areas. -Compliance alignment -Infrastructure completion -Revenue enablement This ensures capital is deployed efficiently while maintaining forward momentum.

Formal CORSIA and ICVCM submission pathways Independent VVB engagement under UKAS accredited structures Completion of registry and API infrastructure upgrades Progression toward compliance grade project onboarding The strategy remains sequential: credibility first, formal recognition second, scale thereafter. Community members who wish to actively support the ecosystem can also engage by introducing potential buyers, partners, and project developers, and by helping to promote high integrity PCS credits and compliance grade project opportunities within their networks. We appreciate the community’s continued engagement as PCS and SPE transition toward full compliance grade positioning. Regulatory and programme approval processes are inherently sequential and externally governed; progress is milestone driven rather than time driven. The team remains fully committed to building PCS and SPE into a credible, compliance aligned infrastructure stack for high integrity carbon markets.

Q1 Community Update – Post EoY Follow Up This update follows the End of Year Community Update and provides a short status on documentation finalisation, external alignment, and token side governance. Documentation & Technical Status We received a number of public comments during the PCS v2.0 consultation period, mainly relating to the blockchain architecture and on chain disclosure. These items have now been addressed in the latest revisions. PCS v2.0 documentation is now being formally locked under version control and published as the official framework. We will be working with UK based Validation and Verification Bodies operating under UKAS accreditation and ISO 17029 / ISO 14065 to further cement methodology credibility and support formal approval pathways. In parallel, we will be progressing applications and engagement with CORSIA, ICVCM, and relevant governmental entities. Several projects remain in the pipeline; however, issuance and scaling are being sequenced alongside CORSIA recognition and ICVCM alignment. Market conditions continue to stabilise after the voluntary market reset, and positioning for compliance grade demand remains the priority. Token Side Clarifications (Q1) The following responses address common questions raised by the community. Value Capture $SPE value capture is defined in the white paper. In practical terms, as PCS generates revenue, value is designed to flow back into the $SPE ecosystem in several ways: Platform access: certain PCS platform features, tools, or participation rights require holding or using $SPE. Burns: a portion of ecosystem activity is intended to reduce circulating supply through token burns. Staking demand: users stake $SPE to access enhanced platform functions, yields, or priority participation. Ecosystem participation: $SPE is used for engagement with NFTs, project access, and future marketplace utilities. Together, these mechanisms are intended to link PCS platform usage, project activity, and the sale and retirement of carbon credits directly to $SPE utility and demand, as described in the white paper. Staking Status Staking has been designed but is not yet implementation ready. The mechanism is technically complex, and previous development partners were unable to finalise delivery within expected timelines. A new team is now in place, with a target release in Q3, subject to security review and implementation readiness. Milestones Staking and NFT utility are contingent on: PCS v2.0 locked and published Progression of CORSIA / ICVCM approval pathways Registry stability and recurring revenue visibility External security review and audit readiness NFT Utility NFTs retain a defined and material role. They will be integrated into staking structures with enhanced percentage incentives and utility weighting (i.e., higher multipliers within the reward and utility system). Ongoing Transparency We will aim to provide more regular updates. Historically, resources have been concentrated on achieving CORSIA and ITMO grade positioning with a small core team. Updates will be shared when material progress is achieved, even if procedural. Liquidity Governance & Disclosure PCS and SPE have been supported operationally for several years through internal funding and direct contribution. The recent liquidity utilisation was deployed toward registry and database infrastructure, API development, and payment of external technical experts engaged to finalise PCS methodologies. Liquidity decisions are made based on operational necessity and long-term ecosystem development priorities. As development progresses, additional liquidity may be selectively deployed to support critical infrastructure, regulatory submissions, and compliance aligned expansion. Where further actions are required, these will be disclosed more proactively going forward. Roadmap Focus Near term focus remains:

This is foundational work, not marketing material, and it is designed to withstand third party scrutiny. Independent Validation and Verification PCS will be working with an independent Validation and Verification Body (VVB) that has scope coverage across CORSIA, EU ETS, ICVCM aligned assessments, ITMOs, and related compliance frameworks. This ensures that both new and existing projects can be assessed, upgraded, and verified against evolving market requirements without structural gaps. Market Outlook and What Comes Next The outlook for high integrity carbon credits is materially improving. Several structural drivers are converging: The next phase of CORSIA will significantly increase demand for eligible credits CBAM and EUDR are forcing companies to address embedded emissions and deforestation exposure Article 6 implementation is accelerating, with clearer host country authorisation and corresponding adjustment pathways As a result, more projects will need to be onboarded, and many existing projects will need to be upgraded to meet CORSIA and ICVCM principles. PCS is positioned to support both new supply development and the technical upgrading of legacy projects. Closing We look forward to engaging with the community during the public consultation phase, onboarding additional projects, and continuing to strengthen the technical and governance foundations of the SPE ecosystem. Wishing you all the best for 2026.

End of Year Community Update As we close out the year, we would like to provide a clear and transparent update to the SavePlanetEarth (SPE) and Planetary Carbon Standard (PCS) community on where we stand, what has been delivered, and what is coming next. COP Developments and Market Direction During COP in Brazil, it became evident that the market is decisively shifting away from low integrity voluntary offsets toward compliance aligned and high integrity instruments. Article 6 mechanisms, CORSIA aligned credits, and integrity frameworks such as the ICVCM are no longer theoretical; they are becoming prerequisites. This direction reinforces the strategic decisions PCS has taken over the past year and validates our focus on methodology credibility, governance, and traceability. Investment and Programme Advancement We are entering a phase where credibility, traceability, and regulatory alignment matter more than volume or marketing narratives. The work completed this year puts PCS and SPE on the right side of where the market is going, not where it has been. Over the next phase, PCS will be directing substantial resources toward formal submissions and approval processes under CORSIA and ICVCM. These processes involve structured programme applications, technical assessments, independent reviews, and ongoing conformance obligations, all of which carry material cost and operational commitments. In parallel, PCS will continue to invest in registry infrastructure and cybersecurity, independent validation and verification capacity, governance and assurance functions, legal and regulatory review, data management and MRV system enhancements, and the technical upgrading of existing projects to meet evolving compliance grade requirements. Additional resources will also be allocated to audit readiness, ongoing programme monitoring, and alignment with emerging regulatory frameworks such as Article 6 authorisation processes, CBAM linked reporting expectations, and EUDR related traceability requirements. Upon successful completion of these processes, PCS methodologies are expected to be formally listed and recognised within the relevant CORSIA and ICVCM frameworks, enabling their use as approved, integrity aligned methodologies for eligible projects. PCS Version 2.0 Documentation and Public Consultation The majority of PCS Version 2.0 documentation has now been uploaded to the documentation and methodology section of the website. This includes updated methodologies, governance frameworks, compliance procedures, and technical guidance. These documents are currently open for public comment. Following the consultation period, the documents will be locked, formally version controlled, and issued as the definitive PCS v2.0 framework. This process is deliberate. Transparency, auditability, and formal change control are non negotiable requirements if a standard is to be taken seriously by regulators, airlines, institutional buyers, and sovereign counterparties. PCS Registry – Now Live The PCS Registry is now live and publicly visible. It shows issued, transferred, and retired credits with records that are consistent across the registry, project documentation, and website statistics. Key upgrades include: Unique serial numbers assigned to credits that are issued or purchased Transaction hashes recorded for all relevant on chain activity Certificates generated for credit retirements, linked directly to registry records These elements are baseline requirements under CORSIA, ICVCM integrity benchmarks, and Article 6 expectations. PCS goes one step further by also issuing blockchain based receipts for retirement events. This additional layer provides cryptographic proof of action and positions PCS ahead of most registries currently operating in the market. Governance, Compliance, and Data Consistency All registry records, public statistics, and disclosures are now aligned across systems. The documentation set explicitly covers governance, compliance, conflict management, data integrity, and version control.

Community Update: 11th September 2025 We’re pleased to share another positive update as we continue progressing on multiple strategic fronts. PCS 2.0 Documentation & Compliance Work We’ve made solid progress on PCS 2.0, our upgraded framework to align with emerging compliance requirements under Article 6, ICVCM, and CORSIA. The full documentation list for PCS 2.0 is now available for preview here: https://planetarycarbonstandard.gitbook.io/pcs-documentation/pcs-2.0 Please note: the documents themselves will only be released for public comment once they receive formal approval from the PCS Board. This process ensures transparency and inclusiveness while maintaining rigorous governance. To support this ambitious undertaking, we’ve onboarded several dedicated team members with expertise in carbon methodologies, environmental law, registry systems, biodiversity, and MRV technologies. Their role is to ensure PCS 2.0 meets the highest technical and legal standards while remaining accessible and scalable for project developers worldwide. Metaverse Development Team Onboarded In parallel, we’ve expanded our in-house capabilities for the metaverse and digital shadow experience. This new team is developing a scientifically grounded yet engaging platform that links real-world carbon projects to immersive digital experiences. Their work covers: • 3D modelling of species • MRV integration • Gamification mechanics using $SPE and LECCNFTs This approach is designed not only to increase community interaction but also to demonstrate the real world impact of verified carbon credits in an educational and interactive format. It adds tangible use cases to our ecosystem while rewarding long term supporters through staking, NFT ownership, and participation. Buyer Engagements We are currently assessing the needs of a potential bulk buyer of PCS credits. Discussions are ongoing, and we are carefully working through the validation and due diligence process. While this represents an important opportunity, we remain cautious and transparent. These conversations are exploratory, and outcomes will depend on final alignment between PCS credits and buyer requirements. Offset Your Footprint As mentioned in our last update, community members can support the ecosystem by offsetting their personal carbon footprints. Every purchase directly contributes to the strength and visibility of PCS. Calculate your footprint using the WWF Calculator, then offset through our marketplace: www.saveplanetearth.io Tree Monitoring, Satellite MRV & Digital Replication We are building a lifelike, species level digital twin of trees from our projects, beginning with our Amazon plots. These models integrate: • Species specific growth data • Satellite based monitoring inputs • Geospatial references This approach not only strengthens the scientific and compliance credibility of PCS, but also supports advanced simulations for carbon capture modelling and climate impact scenarios. Final Thoughts All of these efforts, documentation development, team expansion, buyer engagement, MRV innovation, and metaverse integration are strategically aligned to support both SPE token utility and PCS credit credibility. We thank you again for your continued support as we advance both compliance readiness and creative engagement. Help Save Hanifaru Bay!

Sign the petition to stop the destruction: https://chng.it/nxLz6k5Gyv Let’s stand up for nature — just as we do with PCS and SPE.

I'll stop there, it should be enough context to spark interest and give realization to the possibilities. Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us through the years, and just know we will continue to build, adapt and evolve, and do our best to succeed, no matter what the world throws at us, as we always have.

Hello @everyone 💚 I just wanted to give history, comments and context to reinforce the major update presented now by Imran, at the risk of being a bit repetitive but with the hope of giving a bit more insight if there are those who don't fully understand the direction we are taking. We’ve been in this struggle for almost four and a half years now, and throughout that time we’ve always tried to make the best decisions we could for the project. It hasn’t always been easy, this whole space is a new frontier regarding carbon credits and blockchain, and sometimes things change abruptly from everything to hacks, evolving crypto tech and market conditions, and ever more influencing macroeconomic factors. Nothing stays the same for long, and we’ve always had to adapt to whatever came our way to the best of our ability while striving for long term vitality and success. Now, things have majorly shifted again. The new US administration is not exactly favorable for the carbon markets, and now a highly publicized scandal with the largest and most well known market players presents us with new challenges. One thing is clear: the future of carbon credits is blockchain transparency and traceability. We don't know when or how it will play out, but it will. We already have 1.7 million carbon credits completely approved and for sale on our innovative carbon credit marketplace which we are constantly in the process of trying to improve, and no one can take those credits away from us, it's just a matter of selling them, eventually the market will come back around, just a question of when. And as you are all aware, we have millions more in the pipeline already approved for the next years as soon as the original VVB gets reorganized, and while waiting for them we are concurrently and proactively taking action to get them approved and verified by other VVBs with the latest compliance standards. So, once again we are pivoting. We’re going to put more energy into getting our carbon credits approved and making sure we’re fully compliant. That’s still the long-term goal, and we’re not letting go of it. But at the same time, we’re going to double down on something that might bring more immediate value to the token, the gamification and metaverse side of things. We must be patient and steadfast in the face of this uncertain timeline, so while we are taking the necessary actions to become aligned with the ever evolving compliance standards, we will be moving forward with the metaverse gamification aspect full speed. This is to give some more immediate action regarding the crypto aspect of the project, an aspect which is meant to keep things moving to try and give more short to medium-term value to $SPE and LECCNFTs while the rest of the inevitable long-term catches up. I'm sure many will have loads of great ideas for this, which we will listen to as always, but here is a very abbreviated summary of some of the possibilities we've been brainstorming for the "SPE Gamiverse": Imagine a metaverse that’s not just a fantasy world, it’s Earth. A fully immersive, 1:1 digital twin of the planet we’re trying to save. You walk through the Amazon rainforest... feel the humidity, hear the wildlife... and see the actual damage being done in real time, or even more powerfully, you fast-forward 10 years and see what will happen if no action is taken. At the same time what if this world was a game? What if Saving Planet Earth was the game? An informative treasure hunt so to speak, for real rewards. One could walk through these environments using VR goggles or simply with AR on their phone or computer, discovering hidden spots, solving missions, planting trees, unlocking SPE tokens and real carbon credits, or even direct impact donations. We want to make it a fun form of informing about the impacts of climate change, while giving tangibility to our carbon projects as well as others that could be onboarded, providing a whole new class of use cases for SPE and the LECCNFTs, the possibilities are numerous.

Positive Outlook: PCS Credits Still Valuable Today While compliance-aligned labels are becoming a buyer requirement, PCS credits remain fully viable for: • Corporate ESG goals • Voluntary offsetting programs • Individual retirements and sustainability commitments With support, we are confident PCS will meet—and exceed—the standards set by CORSIA, ICVCM, and Article 6 frameworks. We Are Ready — and Advancing We are not standing still—PCS is actively evolving with the market. PCS is already: • Revalidating methodologies • Engaging approved VVBs • Updating our registry framework • Preparing to onboard Article 6.2/6.4 and ICVCM structures Inclusion in Article 6.2 (Bilateral Trading of ITMOs) Article 6.2 allows countries to enter into bilateral agreements to transfer emission reductions—referred to as Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs)—using any standard or methodology, including private ones like PCS, as long as both governments agree and follow required accounting principles. Key Point: Under Article 6.2, PCS credits can be included even without UNFCCC accreditation of the PCS standard, provided both participating countries authorise the use and ensure full environmental integrity and accounting consistency, including corresponding adjustments. PCS Will Align with Article 6.4 PCS is also preparing to align with the Article 6.4 mechanism of the Paris Agreement, which will be administered by the UNFCCC as a centralised global carbon market. As a private standard underpinned by rigorous scientific methodology, PCS will begin submitting its methodologies for review and approval by the Article 6.4 Supervisory Body. This process will include: • Conducting a gap analysis to align PCS methodologies with 6.4 requirements for additionality, baseline setting, leakage prevention, and monitoring • Updating technical documentation to meet the integrity and transparency thresholds under Article 6.4 governance • Engaging UN-accredited Validation and Verification Bodies (VVBs) to conduct third-party assessments of eligible PCS projects • Preparing projects for registration under the UNFCCC Article 6.4 registry • Coordinating with host countries to obtain Letters of Authorisation (LoAs) and facilitate corresponding adjustments, enabling the issuance of A6.4ERs (Article 6.4 Emission Reductions) Through this process, PCS will ensure that its projects are eligible for participation in UN-supervised global compliance markets. PCS credits are among the most technologically advanced and scientifically credible in the global market—powered by AI, satellite-based monitoring, and blockchain-enabled transparency. With a foundation rooted in innovation and integrity, PCS continues to serve ESG-driven corporates and climate-conscious individuals seeking measurable environmental impact. As the market evolves, so does PCS. The future of carbon markets is no longer defined by quality alone—but by compliance alignment, host country authorisation, and traceable climate outcomes. PCS is actively embracing this shift. We are entering a transformative phase in the global carbon economy—one shaped by standardised national baselines, sovereign accounting systems, and verifiable mitigation outcomes. PCS is proudly positioning itself as a next-generation standard, contributing to the buildout of high-integrity, science-verified carbon assets. With this transition, PCS is preparing to unlock participation in the projected $10B+ Article 6.2 and 6.4 global compliance market by 2030—as outlined by the World Bank and other leading climate finance institutions. This positions PCS not just as a credible carbon solution, but as a key player in the regulated markets that will define the future of climate finance.

Market Update from SavePlanetEarth & Planetary Carbon Standard (PCS) Repositioning for the Future: From REDD+ to CORSIA, CCP & Article 6.2 As global carbon markets shift toward more regulated, high-integrity systems, PCS is actively realigning to ensure we remain not only relevant—but leading—in the next era of climate finance. Market Realignment: From Voluntary REDD+ to Compliance-Driven Credits The voluntary REDD+ segment, once a pillar of nature-based solutions, has been under pressure following major scrutiny. Concerns around permanence, additionality, and double counting have prompted buyers to demand: • CORSIA-eligible credits • ICVCM Core Carbon Principles (CCP)-labelled units • Ratings from third-party evaluators • Article 6.2-compliant ITMOs, with LoAs and corresponding adjustments This shift has understandably led to a pause in market activity, with many buyers waiting until COP30 for clearer international guidance and registry infrastructure. Timeline of Transition • 2023: Verra REDD+ projects came under fire via major investigations (The Guardian, Die Zeit, SourceMaterial), shaking buyer confidence. • 2024–2025: o ICVCM launched CCP labelling o CORSIA tightened standards for aviation credits o Article 6.2 introduced strict eligibility requirements o Registries and developers began overhauling methodologies PCS’s 2023-issued credits, developed with rigorous monitoring and scientific integrity, now serve as a strong foundation for our transition into the next generation of compliance-aligned, high-integrity carbon assets. PCS Response: Positive Action & Compliance Integration Underway We are pleased to confirm that PCS has formally initiated its transition toward full compliance alignment. Key steps already in motion: Instructed international experts to overhaul our methodologies in line with CORSIA and ICVCM requirements: Registering PCS with ICVCM and CORSIA to enable CCP and aviation credit labelling Engaging accredited VVBs (beyond SLCF) to conduct fresh validations on our project portfolio Deploying a new ground-truthing and monitoring dataset, incorporating AI, satellite, and in-field verification to match the latest expectations This forward-thinking strategy ensures PCS remains a trustworthy partner as buyers shift toward higher-integrity credits. Market Feedback: What Buyers Told Us Our ongoing dialogue with carbon buyers has revealed the following: • PCS credits are still valued for their scientific transparency and tech integration • Buyers in Japan are now focused on JCM • Singaporean parties are prioritising Article 6.2 credits with LoAs and adjustments • Many registries and standards are in the same position—rebuilding to meet the new demand • With COP30 approaching, most buyers are preparing for post-COP deployment of capital National Baseline Development – A Global Bottleneck As part of UNFCCC compliance, host countries must establish: • National GHG inventories • Sectoral baselines and forest reference levels (FRLs) • Carbon registries • Letters of Authorisation (LoAs) and Corresponding Adjustments While countries like Ghana, Singapore, Switzerland, and PNG are progressing, Sri Lanka and Brazil—where many PCS projects are based—are still early in this process. Without these national structures, even aligned credits cannot yet trade as ITMOs. External Challenges: War, Trade, and Political Uncertainty In addition to market reform, we face macro-level headwinds: • Global conflicts are diverting capital and delaying ESG purchasing decisions • The EU’s CBAM and similar emerging tariffs in the US/UK are creating urgency for compliance-grade credits • Potential US withdrawal from the UNFCCC (as signaled by Trump) is generating uncertainty, especially among American corporate offsetters PCS continues to adapt within this evolving landscape by focusing on scientific rigor, compliance integrity, and transparent reporting.

Everyone: Here is an update from Imran. We are hard at work, adapting to ever-changing geopolitics and carbon market turmoil. His update could easily be over 100 pages long, but it's abbreviated just to be reasonably digestible. Any valid questions always get to us so feel free to ask and we will respond in due time. :

SavePlanetEarth (SPE) & Planetary Carbon Standard (PCS) - Anniversary Update As we mark another year of progress and dedication to our mission of creating a more sustainable and carbon-conscious future, we want to take a moment to update you on the developments and challenges we've faced along the way.

Hello everyone, quick update, we turned 4 years old the other day and while we would have loved to celebrate with great news and progress, instead we are currently dealing with a massive hack which occurred on April 3rd. After an extensive investigation, it was found that the hacker(s) were able to infiltrate our AWS account, launching scripts thats deployed thousands of resources on servers all over the world, all dedicated to mining Monero. The attack was swiftly stopped but not without cost, nobody's info was on these servers as it's separate, and just to be clear this has nothing to do with the SPE token. The affected resources were all regarding the PCS registry. The cleanup continues and is almost finished, and some of the PCS APIs are online already but there are still some offline, nothing has been lost except for that we are now facing a massive bill from AWS for the exponential resource use, so you have an idea it's north of $50,000. We are currently following all of their instructions and putting in extensive safeguards to make sure it doesn't happen again, and maybe it's a blessing in disguise - we still haven't arrived to our liftoff phase, so better for something like this to make us stronger now, than if we were in the middle of selling massive amounts of carbon credits. To our core SPE/PCS team's defense, everything to do with the PCS registry and AWS was outsourced to a third party which those of you following us over the years surely have heard of. When examining AWS CloudTrail, the attack was performed using compromised keys of one of the developers of said third party. Albeit these unfortunate circumstances, staking is still in progress and getting closer every day, times are tough but the grind doesn't stop, we are hoping to have it ready for an audit before summer but as most of you know these things are hard to predict. I leave you with Imran's original anniversary post which we didn't release in the moment due to the fact that we didn't fully have a grip on scale of the damage from the hack. Thank you all for your support:

Hello everyone! As previously mentioned, we’ve been working on the website ever since the earlier release. We fully understood that the previous version left a lot to be desired - and it was on purpose. We just wanted to show you a very early draft, marking our new approach to generate more customers. The current build is way more polished, but still far from finished. Many of the buttons are currently for show only, and will get their use asap. We’ve also been working on integrating an online video call booking system, which will be available very soon. I’ll be working continuously to make the site even more functional. In our transparency dashboard on the $SPE page, I’ve added a feature that tracks the weekly change in the wallets we track. This gives you an easy way to track sudden movements of interest, such as future burns 👀 I’ll keep you updated on any significant changes, and please forward anything that looks weird on the website to me in DM🙏 Have a look here - https://www.saveplanetearth.io
