CRYPTO REF: Green-related Coin Projects
(Updated!) Maybe it's time to think about investing not only in the future, but in a future more in tandem with the planet? Start here... a quick-list of green-related cryptocurrency projects I can find out there currently. Maybe you know of ones I’ve missed out?
Each one is a big subject, so this is just a starting point. I’m a big fan of initiatives like these (so many!) and hope to write more about them in the future. For now, I hope this provides some helpful reference.
I've only quoted the blurb overviews from the sites, but you can find investment guidance by searching on ICObench, then check under Ratings.

We are producers of energy, NOT an energy exchange platform.
