(NASDAQ: TWKS), a global technology consultancy that integrates strategy, design and engineering to drive digital innovation, today announced applying its deep agile and technical expertise to building a Fractionalized Offset Management (FOM) system for , a mission-based environmental project development firm focused on preventing greenhouse gas emissions.听听
听
Launched in 2021, the FOM system enables Tradewater to provide its subscribers 鈥 individuals, households and businesses 鈥 with web-based tools to measure the carbon impact of a daily task, travel, business operation or event. Subscribers can purchase high-quality carbon offset credits, directly funding the prevention of greenhouse gas emissions through Tradewater鈥檚 projects, which collect and destroy potent refrigerant gases. The FOM system manages this exchange through a centralized marketplace that retires the credits on accredited registries and provides purchasers with complete documentation.

魅影直播 applied its customer experience, product and design capabilities to rapidly deliver Tradewater鈥檚 FOM system. In one year, Tradewater has seen its offset credit subscriptions grow by 419 percent and single purchases spike by 422 percent. These numbers represent 15,042 tons of C02e, the equivalent of removing 3,721 passenger vehicles from the road for one year, eliminating the use of 1,692,585 gallons of gasoline or avoiding the yearly electrical use of 2,732 homes. 听
