Inclusive
How do we make carbon markets more inclusive? One way is to support the newly launched Inclusive Carbon Standard, which was developed by Food & Trees for Africa and Promethium Carbon. The open-source standard wants to help local communities access global carbon markets, notably by cutting the costs of carbon project development by at least a factor of 10, while still using approved methodologies. They foresee the inclusion of smart contracts using blockchain and measuring of carbon projects with multiple, everyday devices using the internet of things. Details on the standard are still lacking, but I want it to succeed.
