That's a pretty interesting idea. I hope you don't mind if I pelt you with a few questions; I'm curious to know more.
* How are you calculating value based on carbon emissions? I assume you are compensating according to some well-known figure for cost of negative externalities?
* Have you done any market research, and have you validated that your estimated payment can overcome the "my children are the most precious thing" issue?
* How do you verify people are not hiding their children for money?
* You mentioned this is a global program, but different people emit different amounts of carbon. Do you estimate by current per-capita emissions in the nation of the person? Do you factor in growth over time for the estimated next generation?
* Where can I read more, as I understand you probably don't want to copy-paste from wherever the information already exists and I've got a few more?
- toomuchtodo 7y agoEmail for details. We haven’t launched yet, we want to make sure the math, the ethics, and the approach are bulletproof before going public. With that said, I’m happy to privately discuss the model we’ve built. There is a natural fertility rate decline you’re seeing around the world, we’re simply trying to tighten the feedback loop (while operating with as much transparency and ethical consideration possible).
