# Klima Protocol > Onchain carbon market infrastructure on Base. Klima Protocol coordinates carbon supply and retirement demand under transparent rules, with liquidity and execution governed by participants rather than intermediaries. Klima Protocol is built around two tokens — kVCM (the unit of account for carbon intake and retirement) and K2 (used to modulate capacity) — and routes incentives to liquidity providers and token holders who govern how the protocol sources and prices carbon. Retirements settle onchain and are auditable end to end. ## Pages - [Home](https://www.klimaprotocol.com): Overview of Klima Protocol, how it works, and who participates. Includes sections for carbon buyers, project developers and suppliers, builders integrating the protocol, and governance participants. - [Blog](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog): Articles on protocol design, carbon markets, and onchain climate infrastructure. - [Terms](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/terms): Terms of service. - [Privacy](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/privacy): Privacy policy. ## Documentation and applications - [Documentation](https://docs.klimaprotocol.com/): Full protocol documentation, including governance reference and the liquidity providers handbook. - [Whitepaper](https://whitepaper.klimaprotocol.com/): Klima Protocol whitepaper. - [App](https://app.klimaprotocol.com/): Retire carbon, supply carbon, and provide liquidity. - [x402 endpoint](https://docs.carbonmark.com/carbonmark-x402/carbonmark-x402): HTTP interface for agentic carbon discovery, quoting and retirement, co-developed with Carbonmark. ## Blog - [How Klima Protocol Incentives Are Calculated](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/how-klima-incentives-are-calculated): Why the incentive rate on a Klima stake varies by duration and over time, and where the difference between carbon intake and retirement actually goes. - [Carbon Markets for the Agent Economy: Inside the x402 Endpoint](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/x402-agentic-carbon-markets): AI agents are beginning to transact on their own. The x402 endpoint from Klima Protocol and Carbonmark gives them a carbon market interface: live market data, executable quotes, and irreversible retirements on Base over plain HTTP. - [Klima Hackathon: How Vealth Turns Proven Work Into Retired Carbon](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/klima-hackathon-winner-vealth): Vealth, built by EcoWealth, won the Klima Community Hackathon by attaching a verified carbon retirement to every unit of proven ecological work — 199.04 tonnes retired across 605 transactions through Klima's x402 endpoint and Retirement Aggregator on Base. - [Designed Not to Extract](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/designed-not-to-extract): Klima Protocol is designed not to extract from the carbon flow it settles. Here is what that resolves to inside the protocol, and why it matters for the voluntary carbon market. - [Carbon Retirement Over HTTP: The Klima x402 Endpoint](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/klima-x402-endpoint): Klima Protocol's x402 endpoint lets any AI agent or HTTP client discover carbon liquidity, quote live prices, and retire credits on Base, with a public certificate as proof. Here is what agentic payments make possible in the carbon market. - [Bringing Carbon Markets Onchain. On Base.](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/bringing-carbon-markets-onchain-on-base): For years, bringing carbon markets onchain felt just out of reach. Purpose-built infrastructure from Klima Protocol and Carbonmark is changing that on Base — connecting everyday onchain activity to permanent carbon retirements. - [Announcing the Klima Community Hackathon](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/klima-community-hackathon): A 4-week build sprint for the Klima Protocol community. Ship new carbon retirement tooling, retire real carbon credits, and the team that retires the greatest value in credits wins 70,000 KVCM. - [Introducing Klima Prize USDC](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/introducing-klima-prize-usdc): Yield that funds carbon retirements without asking depositors to think about it. A new prize savings vault on Base routes a share of yield to permanent carbon retirements via Klima and PoolTogether. - [Why Klima Protocol Uses Incentives](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/why-klima-protocol-uses-incentives): How Klima's two-layer incentive design — liquidity incentives and token lock allocations — coordinates carbon market participation without intermediaries. - [A Carbon Strategy on Base](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/carbon-strategy-on-base): Turning DeFi activity into scalable climate impact. Klima, Hydrex, and Azos introduce the Carbon Strategy — a new primitive that converts onchain capital flows into measurable, permanent carbon retirements. - [Klima 2.0 Protocol Announcement](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/klima-2-protocol-announcement): Klima 2.0 is live — redesigned protocol architecture for voluntary carbon markets featuring a two-token model, carbon classes, neutral infrastructure, and identity verification. - [Introducing Klima 2.0](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/introducing-klima-2): A new chapter for carbon market infrastructure—standardised carbon classes, unified liquidity, and transparent execution on Base. - [Liquidity in Klima 2.0](https://www.klimaprotocol.com/blog/liquidity-in-klima-2-0): How Klima 2.0 redesigns liquidity for carbon markets—separating carbon inventory from token markets to deliver stability, scalability, and appropriate market infrastructure. ## Optional - [Carbonmark](https://www.carbonmark.com/): Marketplace for purchasing and retiring carbon offsets, with much of its liquidity serviced via Klima Protocol. - [Klima Labs](https://www.klimalabs.com/case-studies): Klima-enabled use cases and descriptive protocol data.
