CHARLESTON, S.C. - eTradeWire -- A New Era of Carbon Transparency Begins

In a world where greenwashing and unverifiable carbon offset claims undermine trust in sustainability efforts, The Evergreen Exchange is setting a new precedent. Today, the organization officially launches the Embedded Impact Certification (EIC)—a groundbreaking standard designed to bring full lifecycle traceability, blockchain-backed integrity, and real impact verification to carbon offsetting.

Unlike traditional offset programs that treat carbon credits as generic transactions, EIC ensures that every offset has a verifiable journey from creation to retirement, embedded directly into the products and services consumers use every day.

Three Key Differentiators of the Embedded Impact Certification (EIC):

The World's First End-to-End Carbon Lifecycle Standard

While most certifications focus only on a company's carbon footprint, EIC tracks both the lifecycle of a product and the lifecycle of the offset used to mitigate its impact. Every EIC-certified product or service carries a quantifiable, verified carbon reduction, ensuring transparency at the individual transaction level.

🔹 What this means for businesses: Instead of generic offset purchases, companies can now integrate real, trackable emissions reductions into their products.
🔹 What this means for consumers: Every purchase includes a clear, verifiable sustainability claim, empowering buyers to support real impact with confidence.

Blockchain-Powered Verification & Zero Double Counting

The carbon offset industry has long been plagued by double counting, unverifiable claims, and opaque transactions. The EIC standard eliminates these risks by using The Evergreen Exchange's blockchain-backed registry, ensuring that:

✅ Every offset has a clear chain of custody – tracking who owned it, when it was used, and when it was retired.
✅ Offsets are uniquely assigned to specific products or services, preventing any chance of reuse or duplication.
✅ Consumers, regulators, and businesses can publicly verify offset claims, creating a level of transparency never before seen in the industry.

Seamless E-Commerce Integration

The EIC standard is designed for seamless adoption by major e-commerce and retail platforms, ensuring that businesses can embed sustainability directly into their sales processes.
