From YouTube: Carbon Accounting and Certification Working Group

Description

The mission of the Carbon Accounting and Certification Working Group is to identify how blockchain or distributed ledger technologies (DLT's) could improve corporate or personal carbon accounting; make carbon accounting and certifications more open, transparent, and credible; and build collaboration between consumers, businesses, investors, and offset developers across industries and national boundaries.

People in the group are building a set of open source tools for an “operating system for climate action” in their blockchain-carbon-accounting lab. The code is being developed as an open source project and you're invited to get involved with what the group is building. Learn more about how to get involved at:

This Working Group is part of Hyperledger's Climate Action and Accounting Special Interest Group and you can find out more about that at:

Hello, I'm sai chen from open source strategies in los angeles, california. My background is on the business side. I run an e-commerce company and I've also developed open source, crp and crm software.

A

So when I look at the climate change problem, I see a large scale problem of data, trust and coordination, the biggest one of our lifetime, we're past the denials.

A

We have the technology to solve climate change, but what we don't have is a way to get all the parts of our economy, the businesses, the investors, the banks and consumers and regulators to work together effectively.

A

This problem is even harder because we have to work across traditional boundaries of industries and countries and across vast supply chains around the world. Well, blockchain is the perfect solution for large-scale collaboration, because it can create trust in networks of data and transactions that scale without the need for central authorities.

A

An open source software like hyperledger, is a big part of that choice. They're also built from collaborative networks, their fundamental part about blockchains and for climate accounting. They assure us the quality of the results, because they're open for analysis in our climate, accounting and neutrality working group we're building the software for a global collaborative network for climate accounting.

A

We've come up with a multi-channel architecture for integrating with lots of different data sources, calculating emissions for them and then publishing those admissions for supply, chain partners, regulators, investors and general public we're, starting with standards such as a greenhouse gas protocol and audit did the data such as the e-grid utility emissions database in the united states.

A

So we take data from utility bills, travel records, driving, apps shipping data feeds and purchasing records. We apply models to calculate their emissions and then we make those results available.

A

Our goal is to make trusted greenhouse gas emissions accounting available for every business activity and every company of our economy. That way, companies can know how to reduce their emissions.

A

Consumers could reward the companies that are taking positive climate action and regulators and investors can see what's really happening once we have this accounting, we could then integrate it up to the level of national and even supernational organizations for working emissions. Treating we could also make it available on apps designed for private individuals to reduce their only missions, and we could link everybody together to take climate action.

A

What we're asking for is people to help us integrate our software into more activities. Climate change is happening because every little thing that is happening in our world is contributing to it. Just a tiny bit.

A

We want to be able to get data on those activities, model their missions and make people start to be aware of their impact and work together to reduce those emissions. So, whether you're an experienced developer from the business side like myself or a private individual, we could all work together to stop climate change. Thank.
