Decentralized Storage for Climate Data
summary
Claims that carbon-credit value comes from fragmented registry data and that current infrastructure is fragile: registries sit in antiquated SQL, many registries use different schemas, and Climate action Data Trust (CAD trust) standardizes inputs but runs on Chia Network, which creates setup overhead. Builders like Carbon Mark currently use a web‑2 CMS and prototype a pipeline that pulls registry fields, normalizes them to the ecological benefits framework with six dimensions, pins records to IPFS, and finds this reduces integration friction and improves verifiability.
