Case 6: Reducing Carbon Footprint for Retail Consumers
Overview
With increasing awareness of climate change, individuals seek ways to reduce their carbon footprint. The Edma Network empowers retail consumers to offset their carbon emissions by purchasing verified Carbon Credit NFTs (CBNFTs) and Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).
🔹 How It Works
1. Tracking Individual Carbon Footprint
Consumers use Edma’s carbon footprint calculator to estimate their emissions from daily activities such as transportation, energy consumption, and lifestyle choices.
The system provides a breakdown of CO₂ emissions and the equivalent carbon offset needed.
2. Purchasing Carbon Credit NFTs (CBNFTs)
Consumers buy CBNFTs on the Edma Marketplace to compensate for their emissions.
Each NFT represents a verified amount of carbon offset sourced from renewable energy and reforestation projects.
3. Supporting Renewable Energy
Consumers can also purchase Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), ensuring that their energy consumption is sourced from verified clean energy projects.
RECs provide proof of sustainability commitment, which can be used for corporate or personal ESG goals.
4. Earning CLE Rewards for Sustainable Actions
Users earn Clean Energy Coins (CLE) for purchasing carbon credits or using renewable energy.
CLE tokens can be staked, traded, or used to access eco-friendly products and services.
