" summary

Claims that decentralized oracles enable end-to-end carbon accounting get concrete: a Chainlink-backed CO2 atmospheric oracle streams Keeling-curve style sensors into smart contracts, paired with satellite Sentinel‑2 imagery, IoT soil probes, Kobo surveys and a proposed lab‑on‑chip. Field results report 4 million trees planted, 20,000 schoolchildren engaged and ~80% tree survival (versus typical ~30%), and pilots aim to prevent double‑counting and prove additionality so credits and payments route transparently to communities.
