Rehash: A Web3 Podcast S2 E2 | Regenerating Communities & Our Planet w/Gary Sheng
On this Episode of Rehash: a web3 podcast, we sat down with Gary Sheng, Co-Founder of Civics Unplugged & Dream DAO. Gary was nominated by Louis, and voted onto the podcast by Julia, triumph, Andrew, tylerinternet, and elliedots. Some of the questions asked in this episode were submitted by Carsten, Zayi, and Louis.
We kickoff the episode by getting to know Gary, his background, and how he fell into web3. He tells us the story of how Civics Unplugged and DreamDAO came to be and lays out for us what the term “regen” means. We get to know more about Gary, his philosophy, and his niche: the intersection of regen and web3.
Next, we dive into the issue of inclusivity in web3, and processes for onboarding new people into web3 being as inclusive as possible. We break down what the ideas behind solarpunk, and we talk about Gen Z and the future of regen web3.
Gary explains the reasoning behind the choice to make DreamDAO a DAO and tells us the benefits to learning by doing in a DAO setting for Gen Z. We discuss community building and Gary gives his advice for growing a healthy community.
We close out with Gary explaining what he meant by saying “optimism is self-fulfilling if tied to collective action,” and then a game of this or that!
