As stated in a post on the Solana website,the project was the first “large smart contract-enabled blockchain” to add tracking of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere. The leadership of the organization hopes that this example will encourage other blockchains to launch similar panels.

“Today, the Solana Foundation is leading the fight againstclimate change among companies in the cryptocurrency industry. Our project has become one of the first blockchains whose emissions are measured in real time thanks to a new data portal created in conjunction with TryCarbonara,” the announcement reads.

A comparison of Solana blockchain emissions with several other examples of carbon dioxide emissions is presented. For example, burning a gallon of gasoline produces as much CO2 as 140,416 transactions on the Solana Foundation network.
