Our technology meticulously tracks waste through the recycling supply chain, certifies recycling, mints carbon and recycling credits via peer-reviewed, third-party methodologies, and sells those credits. Upon credit sale, revenue is automatically distributed to the recycling participants whose environmental work led to the creation of each individual credit.  \n\nCredit sales place a value on environmental work, recycling by waste type,  and avoided carbon emissions that  are associated with high performance recycling instead of needing to extract and process raw materials. \n\nAutomatic credit revenue distribution acts as a direct investment into recycling infrastructure \u2013\u2013 bridging the gap between the cost of recycling versus landfilling,  which is paramount to leading (with a carrot and not a stick)  the transition from a linear to a circular economy.
