PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 15, 2022  /PRNewswire/ -- Carbon Title today unveiled the first decentralized platform designed to bring radical transparency to decarbonization efforts within the real estate sector, which is responsible for nearly 40% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. The industry has a historic opportunity to reduce carbon emissions, but until now, property owners, contractors, and developers have not been properly equipped to effectively reduce their emissions, particularly in building materials and construction.

Key Points: 
  • Carbon Title's easy-to-use tools will not only enable but also motivate the real estate industry to achieve its carbon neutral goals by marrying intuitive design with blockchain technology.
  • The real estate industry is facing a near impossible task: Increase construction output to meet growing housing and infrastructure demands while simultaneously fighting climate change by self-regulating and reducing carbon emissions.
  • "I've spent years in the real estate and construction industries and know how daunting decarbonization is for the industry," said Miles Haladay, co-founder at Carbon Title.
  • Based in Portland, OR, and founded in 2021 by Miles Haladay and Trevor Dryer, Carbon Title is the first decentralized platform bringing radical transparency to decarbonizing the real estate sector.
