KodaDot has offset 10,000 kilograms of CO2.
KodaDot is a community-owned NFT market running on Kusama.Network. Kusama shares the same underlying architecture as Polkadot: a multichain, heterogeneously-sharded design based on Nominated Proof of Stake.
Blockchains using Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanisms use financial incentives to validate the network, rather than energy-intensive hashing used by Proof of Work blockchains. As KodaDot uses PoS it is already a highly energy and carbon efficient blockchain, with a marginal carbon impact.
Even though KodaDot is already energy efficient, the team have decided to raise the bar and take carbon positive action as part of their Carbonless NFT Movement — having a net positive carbon impact by doing more than just offsetting.
10,000kg CO2 is equivalent to:
By volunteering to offset these emissions, KodaDot is supporting quality, third-party certified projects with a range of additional social and environmental benefits!
