Great post! From the explanation in the video, it says that the Zero Carbon Market is helping consumers switch to Zero Carbon energy which is "offset by international carbon credits".
Offsets will always mean that someone is polluting on the one hand in exchange for someone who is being cleaner on the other. This was one of the main criticisms of the Clean Development Mechanism known as REDD (Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation). Does anyone know if for this case, it would mean that the zero carbon energy projects are obtaining certified carbon credits which are being paid elsewhere by emitters of CO2? Then this project is really about the "blockchaining" of carbon credits (or their "cryptocurrency version" with the new name of Energis) which will be able to draw a lot more individual consumers into its market because of the blockchain technology. Very smart. Please anyone correct me if I am wrong.
This is quite an interesting project. I am researching what options are available right now for joining and collaborating. Again, if anyone knows, please point me in the right direction. Thanks!
