Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an points system, and more particularly to a points system and implementation method for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that promotes and encourages the achievement of environmental sustainability goals through the operation of information devices and system operation. Prior Technology

[0002] The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 goals for global sustainable development adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The SDGs were rolled out globally starting in 2016, a process known as "localization of the Sustainable Development Goals." Governments must actively seek partners, bringing together all stakeholders—people, universities, governments, institutions, and organizations—to work together towards these goals, tailored to each country's specific circumstances. These goals must be incorporated into national legal systems, legislated, and implementation plans and budgets established to promote economic prosperity while protecting the planet. Furthermore, the SDGs call for action from all countries, regardless of their economic status (poor, rich, or middle-income). The goals state that eradicating poverty must be pursued in conjunction with a range of strategies, including promoting economic growth, addressing social needs such as education, health, social protection, and employment opportunities, curbing climate change, and protecting the environment. Therefore, less developed countries also need the support of more developed countries, making international coordination extremely important.

[0003] However, because this is a global development indicator, many countries participate. Due to differences in environmental, political, and economic circumstances, the implementation and promotion of these indicators inevitably face numerous challenges. For example, the SDGs comprise 17 objectives, encompassing 169 sub-objectives, including: ending poverty, eradicating hunger, health and well-being, quality education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, affordable clean energy, appropriate jobs and economic growth, industrialization, innovation and infrastructure, reducing inequality, sustainable urban and rural areas, responsible consumption and production, climate action, marine conservation, terrestrial conservation, peace, justice and sound institutions, and multicultural partnerships. Each government faces unique challenges in policy implementation based on its own circumstances. The sheer number of indicators further exacerbates the high social costs of implementation. Therefore, even highly developed countries encounter significant difficulties in implementing these indicators, let alone less developed countries. Furthermore, some of these indicators are... While businesses and organizations have the capacity to achieve certain goals, and some can be accomplished by individuals, the foundation for these goals always starts with the individual as a "human being." For example, climate action, marine ecosystem conservation, and terrestrial ecosystem conservation, although these are macro-environmental indicators, must actually begin with "basic education." The recipients of this "education" are "people," meaning enabling people to understand that individual behavior ultimately affects changes in the overall environment. Therefore, the most basic unit for promoting and achieving the various indicators of the SDGs is "people." Thus, the promotion of groups, organizations, and policies requires that those who implement and participate in the SDGs understand and agree with their core objectives and details before the aforementioned indicators can be concretely achieved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned needs, the inventor, based on years of experience in related industries, has conducted research on the introduction and integration of information and resources required in the process of promoting the various indicators of the SDGs. Therefore, the main purpose of this invention is to provide a "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system and its implementation method, which takes knowledge introduction as the starting point and learning as the process, so that the general public can absorb and understand the relevant information of the various indicators of the SDGs through participation and interaction with the platform, and combine enterprises and organizations to form a cyclical and interactive SDGs ecosystem, so as to achieve the goal of making the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) achievable.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is mainly composed of a central processing module as its core, and a member management module, an points module, an exchange module, and a blockchain module that are connected to the central processing module to form the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system as described in the present invention. It also has a user platform that allows a user to log in to the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system for operation, or to perform remote operation on an external information device after establishing an information connection.

[0006] The points module mainly includes a testing unit, an activity recording unit, and a consumption recording unit. The testing unit is used to generate multiple information questions for users to answer and store the answer results and records. The activity recording unit is used to record and store the user's activity process connected and participated in through the platform. The consumption recording unit is used to record and store the user's consumption process and records generated through the platform.

[0007] The aforementioned redemption module allows users to exchange their digital points for corresponding products or services when executing a redemption command.

[0008] Therefore, the blockchain module described above mainly involves putting various records completed by users on the user platform onto the blockchain so that each record is immutable and traceable.

[0009] Additionally, the member management module is linked to a member database, which stores the information of members who are logged in on the user platform. This information includes, but is not limited to, user name, user ID, and user password.

[0010] Furthermore, the implementation method of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system as described in this invention mainly involves users logging into the user platform using a user terminal device. Users can then participate in activities such as answering quizzes, making purchases, or engaging in other activities on the user platform. After completing at least one of these activities, users can obtain digital points. Further, after obtaining digital points, users can use these points to redeem goods or services on the user platform. As mentioned above, the party providing the goods or services for redemption, such as a company or organization, can convert the accumulated digital points into carbon credits or non-tradeable carbon credits after verification and calculation by the user platform, thus serving as the basis for carbon neutrality.

[0013] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the system architecture of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 of the present invention is based on a central processing module 11, and has a member management module 13, a points module 14, a redemption module 15, and a blockchain module 16 that are connected to the central processing module 11. It can be operated by a user on the user platform 12 after logging into the system, or remotely operated by an external information device 2 after establishing an information connection with the user platform 12.

[0014] Please refer to the diagram again. The points module 14 mainly includes a testing unit 141, an activity recording unit 142, and a consumption recording unit 143. The testing unit 141 is a user interface written in code, used to generate multiple question information for the user to answer questions when executing the testing unit 141, and to store the answer results and record the digital points converted based on the answer results. The multiple question information can be automatically generated, for example, based on the SDGs target areas selected by the user. The activity recording unit 142 is a user interface written in code, used to record and store the user's activity history connected and participated in through the user platform 12. The consumption recording unit 143 is a user interface written in code, used to record and store the consumption history and records generated by the user through the user platform 12. Furthermore, the aforementioned digital points definition method can be, for example, by the points module 14 providing different digital points calculation weights according to different activity types.

[0015] The redemption module 15 referred to in this invention is an execution instruction written in a program. When the user executes the redemption module 15, the user's digital points can be redeemed for a corresponding product or service item according to the operation.

[0016] The blockchain module 16 referred to in this invention is based on blockchain technology. It mainly performs an on-chain process on various records completed by the user on the user platform 12, so that each record is immutable and traceable. Furthermore, the aforementioned various records refer to, for example, the user's test records, activity participation records, consumption records, digital points, etc. For example, an on-chain process is performed on the digital points records to make the digital points records immutable and traceable.

[0017] The member management module 13 referred to in this invention is linked to a member database 131. The member database 131 is used to store member information that has logged in as a member on the user platform 12, including but not limited to user name, user ID, user password, etc., so that the member management module 13 can have a multi-factor authentication mechanism to improve system security.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 2, which is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the method of the present invention (I). Please also refer to Figure 1. As shown, a user can use an external information device 2 to establish an information connection with the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 of the present invention through a login platform S1. After logging in, an event operation S2 can be performed, such as selectively participating in activities provided or linked by the system, taking quizzes, or making purchases. As mentioned above, after completing the event operation S2, the points module 14 will process the points for each user. Each event executes a step of generating points S3, generating a "digital point" for each event, and the "digital point" is stored in the points module 14 after a step of storing points S4; furthermore, the "digital point" is stored in a user account corresponding to the user platform 12; referring to the figure, after the point generation step S3 is completed, the generated "digital point" can be further processed through the blockchain module 16 for on-chain procedures before executing the point storage step S4, so that the "digital point" has immutability and traceability.

[0019] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, this invention can be applied to the implementation of various indicators of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The test questions generated in the test unit 141 can be, for example, questions related to the SDGs, such as those related to climate action, marine ecosystem conservation, and terrestrial ecosystem conservation. This allows users to learn about the SDGs while taking the test and to obtain corresponding "digital scores" upon completion. Alternatively, users can operate the activity record sheet... For example, user 142 can participate in activities provided by the user platform 12, and the activities are related to the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)," such as beach cleanups and ecological environment maintenance, and obtain corresponding "digital points" after participating in the activities; or, for example, user 142 can purchase goods or services provided by the user platform 12 through the operation of the consumption record unit 143, and the goods or services are those that meet the standards of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)," such as the purchase of green energy, and obtain corresponding "digital points" after the transaction is completed.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 3, which is another preferred embodiment (a) of the system architecture of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) points system 1 of the present invention is further linked to a third-party platform 3 (or multiple third-party platforms 31-33). The third-party platform 3 may be a corporate website or organization website that provides goods or services. Furthermore, the goods or services provided by the corporate website or organization website may be goods or services that meet the standards of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Please also refer to the figure. One or more users may use their own external information devices 2 (21-23) to log in to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) points system 1 of the present invention to perform various operations after the information link is established (please refer to the descriptions in Figures 1 and 2).

[0021] Please refer to Figure 4, which is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the method of the present invention (II), and also refer to Figure 3. As shown, after the user completes the step of generating points S3 through the operation and the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 of the present invention, the user can directly use the obtained "digital points" to redeem points S5. That is, the user can directly redeem goods or services through the third platforms 3 (31~33) linked by the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1. Alternatively, after completing the step of generating points S3, the user can choose to store the "digital points" in points S4, and then redeem points S5 later. As mentioned above, the user can obtain points by logging into the user platform 12 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 and operating (for example, by taking a quiz in the performance test unit 141). Users can acquire or learn information related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and obtain "digital points." After obtaining these points, users can redeem goods or services on various third-party platforms (31-33) linked to the SDGs points system. These goods or services must conform to the SDGs standards. This creates a cycle of learning and redemption, with the entire process aimed at meeting SDG standards. Starting with knowledge acquisition and progressing through learning, users can absorb and understand information about the various SDG indicators through participation and interaction with the platform. This fosters a cyclical SDGs ecosystem involving businesses and organizations, ultimately enabling the SDGs to be achieved.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 5, which is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the method of the present invention (III). As shown in the figure, users can further use "digital points", fiat currency, or virtual currency to conduct a consumption transaction S51 step on one or more consumption platforms 4 that are linked to the information of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1, such as purchasing goods or services. Moreover, the goods or services provided by the consumption platform 4 are also goods or services that meet the standards of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)". Thus, as mentioned above, this will form a cycle of consumption and supply, and the entire process aims to meet the standards of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)". This allows ordinary people to form a cyclical and interactive SDGs ecosystem through consumption, combined with enterprises and organizations, so as to achieve the goal of realizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

[0023] Please refer to Figure 6, which is another preferred embodiment (two) of the system architecture of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the central processing module 11 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 of the present invention is further connected to a carbon weight conversion module 19. The carbon weight calculation module 19 is a parameter calculation program used to generate a "carbon weight unit" after the "digital integral" is verified and calculated by the carbon weight calculation module 19. It is usually calculated in "metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent" (tCO2e), and 1 metric ton of carbon emissions is 1 unit. In addition, the verification and calculation can also calculate "non-tradable carbon credits" as the target to calculate a "non-tradable carbon credit unit". The "non-tradable carbon credit" (NTCC) is... This refers to a form of carbon credit that is non-tradable, non-sellable, and non-transferable. It is primarily acquired through actual ESG emission reduction activities, such as concrete environmental actions like internal corporate carbon reduction and public welfare participation, to accumulate "non-tradable carbon credits." This ensures that ESG contributions are quantifiable and avoids issues like carbon credit arbitrage and greenwashing. Corporate ESG applications can include using it as ESG impact data to ensure that corporate emission reduction activities are genuine and verifiable, thereby enhancing market recognition of ESG influence, effectively improving corporate ESG ratings, optimizing supply chain transparency, and supporting sustainability reporting and investment reviews. Furthermore, this blockchain module uses smart contract technology to ensure the automated execution of credit conversion and the calculation of carbon credits, or non-tradable carbon credits.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 7, which is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the method of the present invention (IV), and also refer to Figure 6. As shown in the figures, after a user operates on the user platform 12 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1, and uses "digital points," fiat currency, or virtual currency to complete the exchange or transaction of goods or services on the third-party platform 3 or the consumption platform 4, since the entire process complies with the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" standards, the third-party platform 3 and the consumption platform 4 (i.e., enterprises and organizations) obtain a large number of "digital points"; which can be further... The carbon credit conversion module 19 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" credit system 1 performs a carbon credit conversion step S6 on the "digital credits" obtained or the carbon reduction results obtained through the transaction process to convert carbon credits. After conversion, the "digital credits" are converted into "carbon credit units". In this way, the third-party platform 3 and the consumption platform 4 can obtain carbon credits. Furthermore, when the carbon credit conversion step S6 is carried out and completed, the process and results will be recorded on the blockchain by the blockchain module 16. Smart contract technology is used in the process to ensure the automated execution of digital credit conversion and carbon credit calculation.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 8, which is another preferred embodiment (three) of the system architecture of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the central processing module 11 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 of the present invention is further connected to an electronic ticket issuance module 17 and an NFT issuance module 18. After the electronic ticket issuance module 17 is executed, the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 issues an electronic ticket 171. This electronic ticket 171 can be, for example, a ticket for a beach cleanup activity. After issuance, users can purchase it after logging into the user platform 12. The purchased electronic ticket can then be used on a third-party platform 3 or a consumption platform 4. In addition, after the NFT issuance module 18 is executed, the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system 1 issues a non-fungible token (NFT). Token (NFT) 181, and the issued NFT 181 can also be an NFT 181 that meets the standards of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)," such as limited edition NFTs with the theme of "ecological environment" or limited edition NFTs with the theme of "animal protection." After issuance, users can purchase them after logging into the user platform 12, and the purchased NFTs are stored in a cold wallet linked to the user, which has the potential for appreciation and trading value.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 9, which is another preferred embodiment (fourth) of the system architecture of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the central processing module 11 of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system of the present invention is further connected to an AI carbon footprint recognition module 191 and a carbon footprint recording module 192. The AI ​​carbon footprint recognition module 191 uses a web crawler program in conjunction with natural language processing (NLP). The web crawler program first actively extracts information from all activities and events on the user platform 12, and then the NLP process confirms whether the activities or events have a carbon footprint history and analyzes what type of carbon footprint history it is. Then, the carbon footprint recording module 192 records and stores the carbon footprint history after corresponding to each individual activity or event.

[0027] As described above, the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" points system and its implementation method of this invention are mainly centered around a management system. It provides an operating platform with a user interface, allowing users to earn points by answering questions and completing designated tasks. These points can be redeemed for specific goods or services from a supplier. After receiving the points, the supplier can have them converted into carbon credits by the management system after verification and calculation, serving as the basis for carbon neutrality. Furthermore, through the operation of this invention, it can simultaneously promote and encourage the implementation of environmental sustainability goals. Accordingly, after implementation, this invention can indeed provide a system that starts with knowledge acquisition and uses learning as a process, allowing the general public to absorb and understand the relevant information of various SDG indicators through participation and interaction with the platform. It also integrates with enterprises and organizations to form a cyclical and interactive SDGs ecosystem, thereby achieving the goal of realizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

[0028] However, the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be covered within the patent scope of the present invention.

[0029] In summary, this invention meets the patent requirements of "industrial applicability", "novelty" and "inventiveness"; therefore, the applicant hereby files an application for an invention patent with your office in accordance with the provisions of the Patent Act.
