I think this is a neat idea and I hope it makes local and renewable powered goods more attractive to consumers (and ultimately, businesses).
Though I often wonder why climate tech is so obsessed with super-accurate and granular carbon calculations. You see this as a value proposition in all kinds of apps and startups for everything from travel to food.
It's pretty clear by now that simply telling someone they emitted 1,333.33 kilograms of co2 is not enough to influence behavior. You can much more quickly estimate your average emissions and spend the rest of your energy finding a good way to offset it.
At least this sort of thinking inspired the work I've done so far on https://offsetra.com https://offsetra.com - whether we manage to make a splash or not, I hope it's the start of a long career building software for sustainability.
