Blockchain as a Power for Good in the Battle against Climate Change
Battling the climate crisis requires a large-scale, coordinated effort by parties around the world. And, in the era of greenwashing and misinformation, transparency and verification are among the most important weapons. While the energy-intensive mining practices of some cryptocurrencies may make it seem counterintuitive, blockchain has an increasingly important role to play in driving down carbon footprints and ensuring climate promises are met and kept. This panel will cover pathways to sustainability for blockchain technologies and growing adoption of tokens, credentials, smart contracts and more in the climate fight.

Speakers:
Alex Altman - COO, Seal Storage
Douglas Johnson-Poensgen - CEO, Circulor
Dr. Andreas Kind - Head of Cybersecurity Technology, Siemens
Moderator:
Daniela Barbosa - Executive Director, Hyperledger Foundation
