7 Ways Blockchain Can Stop Climate Change & Save The Environment

[@emilholst9789]

I would recommend lower or no background music last time.

[@futurethinkers]

Thanks for the feedback

[@awarrenty]

I thought the music was on point!

[@sanyukta8987]

What about the mining taking up shit ton of electricity

[@baxoutthebox5682]

And data centers wrecking water supplies

[@noritheoctopus474]

Incredible! Excited to learn and grow with this space. Cardboard citizens has begun building a legendary community of builders. 📦📦

[@PeterBrennanfisic]

Great video guys. I didn't really get how Blockchain would make the grid more efficient. Electric grids already have centrally managed power dispatch operations and market based pricing. The power producers are regulated to keep the grid stable. I guess I am missing how superimposing a blockchain type ledger on this infrastructure will make much difference.

[@lifeoftomi_]

This needs to go viral. People need to see the potential here. Blockchain is more than quick money as the media poses it to be.

[@olivierfranchi16160]

Your team did a good job. Useful infos

[@SukYeinSang]

Interesting and useful !

[@ellasgreentoken]

Well done!

[@derengel9526]

💚 IOTA 💚 Don't ask what the world can do for you, ask yourself what you can do to leave the lowest possible CO2 footprint for the world and our descendants. No miners, no greedy auditors, no broadcasting costs, no avoidable fees, etc. The world needs everyone to rethink, for the benefit of the entire world with its inhabitants, the future world, nature, clima, people and our descendants need 💚 IOTA 💚. a clean alternative

[@cryptocurrencyforall7085]

I want to join this.

[@blockchainalmanac3890]

Great video. Very informative

[@james9836]

I hear that block chain requires more energy to run the servers then some counties is this true?

[@perriwenplays9215]

Yes.

[@tellingfoxtales]

BC is changing the world as we speak, there will be those who make the most of it, and those who struggle to catch up.

[@cadusteig8794]

The idea is awesome but something that bothers me a lot is how we would get a corrupt government (like in Brazil) to start using BC for more transparency? Right now it sound too good to be true. I just can´t see politicians voluteer engaging in it. Any ideas of how it could work?

[@una_llum2874]

Politicians do what people make them

[@rmt3589]

Pressure from the people. If people want BC using politicians, and some politicians start individually using it, it can grow in popularity. There are other ways, but that's the universal standard in my eyes.

[@kapilgidwani]

Nice.. which tool you use to make the presentation ?

[@ivorubiomondragon5872]

Awesome job. Loving the vids! Greetings from LA!

[@lyricallizard7817]

haha, blockchain will destroy the environment.

[@phbytfuurfs]

What software have you guys used to create this video? I like it.

[@futurethinkers]

Thanks! We used Adobe Aftereffects.

[@maxcord]

Hi there! Custom animation or templates? It would help a lot if I knew this!

[@onecarwood]

Max Cordero I would think template

[@steffen3]

I hate it and therefore stopped the video. :/

[@maxcord]

So this video got 4k views in 10 days... while Taylor Swift's got a million in 10 minutes.,,

welcome to the internet

how to implement blockchain?

[@JanClaesTube]

Blockchains have one big advantage: It is practically impossible to change data. While this is groundbreaking and indeed facilitates tracking, it comes at a (too?) high cost. Even without proof-of-work as a trust mechanism, the essential property of a blockchain is that many copies exist of the data. No matter how you look at this, the data redundancy is wasteful and does not belong in a climate-concerned, sustainability-oriented world. For sure there are other ways to improve tracking and tracing to achieve the seven discussed ways to lower climate change?!

[@TheRastamau5]

Hey Jan, could you kindly expand on what you mean by "data redundancy"?

[@JanClaesTube]

@@TheRastamau5 The abundance of copies of the whole blockchain is considered “redundant”. It means “unnecessary”. In any other system, the data is stored in one or a few places, with potentially some backups, and perhaps synced to a few devices. Let’s say (way) less than 100 copies. In blockchains all data is stored in typically thousands and thousands of copies. This is unnecessary or redundant…

[@TheRastamau5]

@@JanClaesTube couldn't you argue the aspect of redundancy can also be viewed as distribution. Depending on what frame you apply when looking at the technology. I thought the fact a blockchain has all the copies of the ledger on every node, copies that can only be appended not amended adds value by removing the need for trust. Therefore, is it not necessary to keep copies on every node?

[@JanClaesTube]

@@TheRastamau5 That is not how it works, I believe. First of all, instead of trusting a single authority, in a blockchain you need a trust system to decide which nodes to trust. In fact, this makes a blockchain less secure in some sense: it is hard to change data, but it may be a bit easier to read data, since it is broadcasted to all nodes. It takes only one undersecured node to break in (no single point of security). Second, it is essential that all nodes have a full copy of the ledger in the current implementations of the technology (to avoid unintentional forking). The abundance of copies have some practical advantages, but in terms of sustainability and resource usage, they make blockchains the worst option in use today. In a context of resource scarcity, this is quite crucial in my opinion.

[@Moguandleo]

It does this , it can do that but you don't answer the question how can it do it????

[@011azr]

Does this mean that people can track what kind of condoms that other people buy? Will this technology be able to track people buying drugs? :O

[@onecarwood]

This sounds great. Problem I see is people. They put the information in.

[@joel0165]

and its all on the record forever for people to see any mistakes and fix them

[@onecarwood]

Joel Mortimer I’m talking about the actual info that you base decisions on. Not the blockchain transactions

[@savingmayberry387]

anyone know the song name?

[@cryptokidtv]

Carbonmeta!!!

[@bernardoalva8080]

A lot of "CAN" and "WILL" no "HOW".

[@luissaldar644]

This is just a short video, do your job of reading.

[@忍者パンダ]

The HOW is left to the risk takers and startups that will actually execute on these. Ideas are almost nothing. Execution is nearly everything.

[@o-look-official]

I would recommend less naivete next time.

[@didierparadisi9020]

I know one!!!! Synergy4S

[@baxoutthebox5682]

This is naïve for a lot of reasons: first it is putting the impetus on the consumer to make “ethical” choices about consumption. This is a massive problem with climate change rhetoric that stems from the “carbon footprint” narrative which was a campaign created by BP (of all companies) in the mid 2000’s. Certifying boards like fairtrade have been far more sympathetic to the businesses they serve than the end consumer. Fairtrade certified is just further obfuscating problems around labor conditions and giving consumers a guilt free experience. Asking consumers to directly invest in renewables? Again, neoliberalism at its dumbest. We’re going to be on the hook either way through subsidies, tax credits or highly taxed fossil fuel based sources. Stopping the video now. This is not the tech that will help create sustainability, ethical capitalism or net zero. It’s just the next step in an existing system of obfuscating real problems and asking individuals to change the world when they frankly cannot (without influencing political change and demanding corporate accountability).

[@Again-je9cm]

Had me till carbon tax. More taxes is what we are fighting.

[@忍者パンダ]

Carbon tax is one way of putting a price on environmental damage. Please feel free to suggest more (whether better or worse is an afterthought)

[@BitcoinBitz]

lol stop climate change that has happened since the beginning of time!? Pfff un subscribed

[@MaghoxFr]

Cryptocurrbit it's the dumbest title that came up on my feed in weeks

[@GardoMcM]

Byee! :)

[@steffen3]

How many books did you read in your life?

[@frankluckythirteen]

Hey Steffen, climate change is the natural occurrence of the earth going ice age to very little ice at-all. The Grand Canyon walls show we have been through three ice ages, and that's just what they show. Sounds like all you do is repeat what ever you are told. You have obviously never read a book.

[@luissaldar644]

You should read ...99% of the Scientific Community agree on climate change ACTUALLY is mainly due to human activity. Are you a denier?
