Title: Can blockchain combat climate change?
Post by: crazybaldhead on July 23, 2019, 04:19:28 PM
I came across this article that a group of researchers have identified blockchain as a solution to climate change crisis :D. It is being suggested that blockchain technology can help combat climate change by enabling decentralization, democratization and  decarbonization of energy. That using smart contracts it is possible to automatically trace and mitigate those factors that contribute to climate change. This article explains it in more details  https://www.ledgerafrica.com/report-proposes-blockchain-deployment-energy-combat-climate-change/  (https://www.ledgerafrica.com/report-proposes-blockchain-deployment-energy-combat-climate-change/).

Personally I think its far-fetched but possible if there's political will. What do you think?
