OWNERSHIP
The ownership of one square meter of land is accomplished by the
Green Globe Tara Unit Trust. Buying a GreenPoint - one square meter
of land – initiates a contractual relationship between Green Globe
Pty Ltd and the owner. The owner has, upon receipt of the ownership
certificate, to confirm acceptance of the Trust agreement by logging
in on the website as instructed in the letter that accompanies the
certificate. This will complete the ownership process.
When the owner does not login, Green Globe will use the specific
lot for greening activities anyway. This is irrevocable with the
exception of making use of the returns policy.
The instrument of a unit trust to determine ownership has the facility
to assign ownership to a specific (apparent with unique geometrical
coordinates) lot of the land. The registration of the specific lot
that someone owns is done on a central databases, controlled by
the Trustee (Green Globe Pty Ltd). A copy of this database is publicly
accessible on Green Globe’s website, by means of ‘The Grid’.
The Green Globe Tara Unit Trust can be found here
(pdf format).
This trust is formally lodged at Queensland Brisbane Office of
State Revenue under lodgment number BRISBANE 012 196 154-6
This trust fulfills the requirements of the Hague Convention of
1 July 1985 on the Law Applicable to Trusts and on their Recognition
RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF OWNERS
The owner of a GreenPoint – one square meter of land – has the
right to prevent any activities on their lot other than greening
as outlined in the next section. The owner has no additional rights,
and can not use the land for any purpose.
The owner of a GreenPoint – one square meter of land – has the
duty to make their lot available for greening as outlined
in the next section.
The owner has no financial duties like land taxes, greening,
and maintenance of the land. These costs will be paid by Green Globe
Pty Ltd.
GREENING
The GreenPoints – square meters of land – that are sold will be
subject to ‘greening’. This greening has the aim to bring back the
land in an ‘ecologically good shape’. This means planting native
trees and vegetation, and protecting the land from any other use
(like e.g. farming, building, planting for wood production, etc.).
Green Globe is responsible for this greening process. Green Globe
will consult one or more experts on establishing healthy ecosystems,
and ask for guidance for this particular piece of land, and will
actually execute the greening. For more information about this see
the greening page.
Green Globe cannot be held responsible in case the greening turns
out to be unsuccessful by any cause, including fire, flooding, diseases,
government regulations, etc.
Nevertheless, it is Green Globe’s goal to bring back the land to
it’s original habitat. Green Globe will do anything within its capabilities
to do so.
The Greening process will start area by area. Areas contain 2000
GreenPoints (m2). An area has to be ‘occupied’ (sold
i.e.) by at least 85% before Green Globe will start greening this
particular area. New areas, after the two initial areas, will not
be opened for sale until greening started in one of the other areas.
Areas and individual lots that are not sold might be greened as
well (to be decided by Green Globe), but will NOT be used for any
purpose that might damage the environment.
Greened areas will, if needed, be maintained by Green Globe Pty
Ltd, or by local partners.
Green Globe has, at any time, the right to transfer the obligations
of maintenance and greening to a third party, without altering the
ultimate purpose however: improvement or prevention of degradation
of the environment.
Green Globe has, at any time, the right to stop maintaining the
land, but has to prevent any activity that decreases the health
of the environment.
