In regards to the need for reliable and traceable carbon offsets, you should check out the startup Topl! I met one of their founders once, and they're working on using blockchain for ethical traceability, such as for land used for carbon offsets. There's a big need for it in SE Texas, where lots of oil companies are looking into offsetting their carbon emissions, and wetlands restoration and protection are a big topic not just for carbon sequestration, but also hurricane resilience and ecosystem health. The tech is still in progress, but it's a neat possibility for the future >.>

That's so interesting - i dont know much about how blockchain works, but i'm excited about its possible use in tracing carbon offsets. I wonder if anybody (oil companies, carbon offset providers) are already using this?
