Tutorial: Verify Personal Carbon Footprint and Redeem TREE Rewards @Treehouse Official

With the integration of blockchain technology and carbon neutrality goals, platforms like #Treehouse (TREE) have launched carbon footprint verification and token reward mechanisms to encourage users to participate in environmental actions. Below are the specific operational steps:

1. Calculate Personal Carbon Footprint

Use authoritative tools (such as CoolClimate Network or CarbonStory) to input daily data (like electricity consumption and travel mileage), and the system will automatically generate a carbon emission report (unit: tons CO2/year). For example, 100 kWh of electricity corresponds to 78.5 kg CO2, and a 100 km drive in a gasoline car emits about 20 kg CO2.

2. Submit Verification Data to Treehouse dApp

• Connect Wallet: Use MetaMask to log in to the Treehouse official website, ensuring the network is switched to BNB Chain or Ethereum mainnet.

• Upload Proof: Upload a screenshot or CSV file of the carbon footprint calculation results to the dApp; the on-chain smart contract verifies the authenticity of the data through zero-knowledge proof (ZKP).

3. Redeem $TREE Rewards

• Carbon Points Conversion: Verified carbon emissions can be proportionally exchanged for GoNuts points (e.g., 1 ton CO2 = 100 Nuts).

• Staking or Trading: GoNuts can be directly staked to earn $TREE tokens or exchanged for tETH (liquid staking asset) within the platform, participating in DeFi liquidity mining to enhance returns.

Notes: Pay attention to regional differences in carbon accounting standards, and prioritize operations during high liquidity periods to reduce Gas fees. Through this mechanism, users can contribute to carbon neutrality while obtaining on-chain economic incentives.
