Since joining Carbon Grid Protocol, Jeremy has been instrumental in shaping the progress of the Carbon Grid product, with a key focus on communicating the right messages to the different group of audiences within the blockchain and environmental communities. Key to any successful product launch, is to ensure the messaging is succinct and understandable. His philosophy isthat a product is as good as its messaging. If the potential user cannot even understand the product’s purpose, it is difficult to find the group of early adopters which reduces the chance for adoption.

This is what Jeremy has to share about Carbon Grid Protocol:

“Carbon credits are one of the major tools in the fight for climate change. However, it has always been quite inaccessible and holding companies accountable has always been a challenge. Carbon Grid will help change that and I think that increase in accountability and ease of use will mean the difference for companies adopting carbon credits.”
