Blockchain Inventory
Welcome to the Blockchain Inventory. This inventory catalogues environmental applications of blockchain. Environmentally-relevant applications included in the inventory are those that aspire to utilize blockchain for environmental science, management, and policy. The inventory does not include applications intended to track or reduce the environmental impact of crypto-mining.
Entries in the inventory provide information on core aspects of the application. Entries include applications that are active, in development, and defunct. While every effort is made to provide accurate, up to date information, the data are not authoritative—they rely on public information and input from application providers.
