KodaDot is community-owned NFT market running on Kusama.Network. Kusama itself was released as an early version of the same code used in the Polkadot blockchain, this means they share the same underlying architecture: 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 an energy efficient blockchain, the team have decided they want to raise the bar and take carbon positive action as part of their Carbonless NFT Movement. So, what this means is that for every tonne of carbon dioxide abatement or removal the team at KodaDot contribute to from Offsetra's high-impact carbon projects, they're having a net positive carbon impact by doing more than just offsetting!

🍔 2,500 cheeseburgers
🐄 4 cows (annual emissions)
🚙 25,000 miles of driving (average passenger vehicle)

By volunteering to offset these emissions, KodaDot is supporting quality, third-party certified projects with a range of additional social and environmental benefits!
