About
Intergenerational Carbon Ledger
A blockchain-based platform that tracks each individual's lifetime carbon footprint and allows them to contribute to environmental restoration projects to offset their impact and leave a positive legacy for future generations. The 'legacy' is a measure of sustainability used by the local community rather than just based on financial contributions.

Future Scenarios that inspired this product idea
