Every payment received by Tomorrow’s Air contributes to climate-conscious travel education and funds the scale-up of carbon emission reductions and carbon removal innovations. PicoNext, an end-to-end platform for experienced brands, plays a pivotal role by providing integrated Digital Product Passports, sustainability transparency, and loyalty capabilities. This enables companies to engage their customers using public ledgers while promoting products and services.
Digital Product Passports Enhance Transparency
PicoNext powers Tomorrow’s Air’s new Digital Product Passports designed for carbon removal purchases, offering a unique way for travelers to track the progress and impact of associated carbon removal orders. These passports allow individuals to gain insights into how carbon dioxide emissions associated with their travel are being effectively removed from the atmosphere.
Cryptographically Secure Carbon Removal Information
The information stored in Tomorrow’s Air Digital Product Passports is cryptographically secure, ensuring the integrity of the data. This adds an extra layer of transparency and trust to the process, as the information can’t be changed or tampered with once it’s written to the blockchain. Updates on the status of climate initiatives remain accessible indefinitely across distributed ledgers, providing insights into the progress of carbon removal actions.
Transitioning to Digital Product Passports for Enhanced Transparency
Tomorrow’s Air is transitioning from PDF-based certificates to PicoNext’s Digital Product Passports, aiming to provide enhanced transparency to a broader audience of stakeholders using sustainable and energy-efficient public ledgers. This evolution allows for a more accessible method to gain deeper insights into a company’s sustainability initiatives compared to traditional PDF certificates.
Addressing Greenwashing Concerns
By using Digital Product Passports, Tomorrow’s Air engages customers with a more interactive and transparent representation of carbon removals. This approach substantiates a company’s commitment to sustainability and fosters greater trust among stakeholders. Notably, it serves as a proactive measure against greenwashing, addressing consumer concerns about the authenticity of sustainability claims.
Technology Safeguarding Environmental Claims
PicoNext’s technology allows organizations to showcase their commitment to sustainability on a public ledger, providing a verifiable record of progress toward environmental goals. This approach is applicable across various industries, ensuring marketing claims align with genuine environmental impact and safeguarding their claims’ integrity.
Compliance with EU Regulations and Industry Applications
