LeafPAYS Launches NFTs, Starts First Phase of Connecting Eco-Conscious Customers with Low-Carbon Businesses
FOUNTAIN HILLS, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / November 7, 2022 / Start-up of climate technology LeafPAYS has launched its AI-generated NFTs, the first step in its goal of connecting eco-conscious consumers with green companies that reduce their carbon emissions. The company, led by CEO Gary Reinhold, CMO Edward Ellis and CTO Wayne Head, is using its NFTs, Metaverse and Web3 to help the world meet two deadlines for reducing greenhouse gas emissions: 2030 and 2050. The release of NFTs with environmental theme, LeafPAYS says, will lead to the next step: reimagining how carbon credits and tokens are used to accelerate America’s transition to net-zero energy.
“LeafPAYS is launching its NFTs with the aim of reducing the impact of carbon on our environment,” says Reinhold. “Many companies are committed to achieving net zero, but they struggle to offset their emissions. Carbon credits, which seemed to have the potential to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, has turned out to be mostly just more greenwashing or avoidance to make the difficult changes to get us to net zero. We want the release of our NFTs to improve how carbon credits are used so that we can help prevent global warming from increasing more than1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.”
With the NFT launch, LeafPAYS officially enters the first phase of its business plan, which includes locking in one ton of carbon credits for every NFT purchased by consumers. Funding from the NFTs will lead to stage two: the release of the LeafPAYS token and the Super app, where individuals will have access to a meta-library of information about businesses and their supply chains. Each company will have a LeafSCORE, which assesses their real-time commitment to clean energy use.
“With LeafSCORE, we will assess not only the company’s use of clean energy, but also their suppliers and vendors,” says Ellis. “We will assess each company on how green their supply chain system is, including the products they manufacture, the products’ components and the company’s use of clean energy during production. This assessment will also inform companies when assessing their ESG performance.”
Head states that in step two, LeafPAYS will provide rewards and discounts to its members who purchase products from companies with high LeafSCOREs. “This will in turn reward these companies over their less green competitors. Companies that are high energy consumers will be able to offset their energy use by purchasing LeafPAYS tokens, which we will use to reward members with net zero,” he says. “Through this, we aim to accelerate the transition to net zero by 2050. It all starts with the issuance of our NFTs.”
Reinhold says the ultimate goal of LeafPAYS’ NFT launch is to bring together consumers and companies who care about the earth. “Global warming is a problem that has been building for decades, and it requires more than one solution. At LeafPAYS, we believe that if we as consumers join with green companies to use NFTs and carbon credits in a new way, we want to give future generations a chance to enjoy our beautiful earth.”
