Plastic offsetting is a way for individuals or organizations to reduce the amount of plastic waste in the natural environment by compensating for their plastic use. Companies that fully offset their ‘plastic footprint’ must accurately measure the plastic used in their products and packaging, and balance this by funding the removal and recovery of at least as much nature-bound plastic waste.

Blockchain can be, of course, a good thing in and of itself. For those less familiar with the concept, blockchain essentially acts as a secure ledger of activity. This means that each new action or input that is stored on the chain (in a ‘block’) needs to ‘fit’ with existing blocks (in a ‘chain’), and this fit has to be confirmed across all decentralized versions of the ledger. As a result, the technology enables the creation of immutable records, safe from any one actor who might want to change or cheat the system.
