Aptos’ latest announcement typifies its commitment to having a positive impact, not only on the blockchain ecosystem, but also on the wider world and its environment.
Announced on September 19 via its blog, high-profile layer-1 blockchain, Aptos, is beginning its journey towards carbon-negativity by teaming up with environmentally-focused Web3 project, Flowcarbon, to launch Aptos-native carbon credits.
Aptos’ end goal for the initiative is to “compensate for emissions while providing a transparent, accountability-focused example for the industry.”
According to Aptos, this new partnership will ensure Aptos purchases and holds only the highest quality carbon credits. The blog post further highlights Aptos’ commitment to having a positive environmental impact, rather than aiming for mere carbon neutrality.
Aptos further details a number of environmentally-minded strategies the network is pursuing, including:
A tandem blog post by Flowcarbon further emphasizes the significance of Aptos’ decision:
"Deciding to be carbon negative involves compensating for a greater amount of emissions than you actually emit in a year,” said CEO of Flowcarbon, Dana Gibber. “That’s an incredibly proactive decision to make. Through this partnership, rather than merely compensating for the carbon footprint of the Aptos protocol activities, we’re able to create a catalyst for a positive contribution to the environment."
