Introducing CarbonX

CarbonX is an environmental fintech designed to create new investment for carbon mitigation projects. In 2017, CarbonX combined with Zerofootprint®.

 

Climate Change is the Critical Issue of our Time

The world is recognizing that climate change is an environmental crisis threatening global prosperity.

 

Green House Gases (GHGs) make life on earth possible. But GHGs comprise a tiny fraction of the atmosphere – only 422 parts per million – or 0.042%. Barely a trace relatively. However, that is twice the volume since pre-industrial times. The doubling has been irrefutably caused by the burning of fossil fuels – as evidenced by the isotopic composition of today’s atmosphere.

 

How CarbonX Helps

The Zerofootprint® program calculates the carbon impact of products and services, then balances that impact with carbon offsets to certify that customers are making sustainable choices.

The Zerofootprint® program begins with Canadian and US patented data collection and aggregation of your company's greenhouse gas emissions for a specific product line, device, service or investment. CarbonX will assist you in setting new targets and award a Zerofootprint® Certificate of Carbon-Neutrality once your company has achieved those targets.

Origination of a carbon offset relies on accurate Measurement, Reporting and ongoing Verification of an emission or reduction of a GHG. Zerofootprint® pioneered the digitization of this process – dMRV – and patented its methods a decade ago in Canada and the USA. Today dMRV data is integral to Blockchain-based credit development, management and trading.

Tokenization

Recently CarbonX became an inaugural licensee of the Tolam Earth Tokenization platform for Digital Environmental Assets. Tokenization completes the dMRV to Carbon Credit process and instantiates a fungible asset that can be placed on a balance sheet in a way that reflects its true strategic, environmental and financial value.
