Abstract: In an aspect, an apparatus for greenhouse gas tracking is presented. An apparatus includes at least a processor and a memory communicatively connected to the at least a processor. At least a processor is configured to receive a first set of greenhouse gas data from a first greenhouse gas source of a user of a plurality of users. At least a processor is configured to receive a second set of greenhouse gas data form a second greenhouse gas source of a user of a plurality of users. At least a processor is configured to determine a first greenhouse gas metric associated with a first greenhouse gas source. At least a processor is configured to determine a second greenhouse gas metric associated with a second greenhouse gas source. At least a processor is configured to calculate a greenhouse gas ratio.

Abstract: Methods and systems for cryptographically secured data validation. The system includes a first validator. The first validator is designed and configured to receive a first instance of an immutable sequential data structure containing at least a first digitally signed textual element containing at least a first physical asset transfer field populated with a at least a first physical asset transfer datum and at least a second digitally signed textual element generated by a second validator. The first validator authenticates the first instance of the immutable sequential data structure. The first validator generates at least a second validity indicating a determination by the first validator as to the accuracy of the at least a first physical asset transfer field. The first validator detects a conflict between the first validity flag and the second validity flag. The first validator transmits to the at least a second validator an indication of the conflict.

Abstract: A bib includes a pant portion, a torso portion, a bladder pocket and a liquid bladder. The pants portion includes a waist section and a pair of leg sections. The torso portion extends from the waist section. The torso portion includes a front and back panels disposed respectively adjacent the abdomen and lower back when the bib is worn by the user. The torso portion includes an outer surface facing away from the user torso and an inner surface facing towards the user torso. The bladder pocket is between the inner and outer surfaces extending from the front panel around the back panel and to the front panel. The liquid bladder is disposed within the bladder pocket and extends from the front panel around the back panel and to the front panel.

Abstract: An apparel top for use by a user is worn about a user torso and a user waist. The top includes an outer shell portion having first and second panels, a back panel, shell outside and inside surfaces, and a bottom edge. The apparel top includes a snow gaiter having upper and lower gaiter edges, first and second gaiter ends, and gaiter inner and outer surfaces. The upper gaiter edge is attached to the outer shell portion at the shell inside surface and extends along the first front panel, the back panel and the second front panel. The lower gaiter edge is generally positionable about the user waist relative to the user torso with the lower gaiter edge extending away from the user torso. The top includes a liquid bladder sized and configured to be inflated with a liquid. The liquid bladder is attached to the snow gaiter.

Abstract: A fastener is coupled to the first strap portion for securing the end flap segment in the looped configuration. A buckle includes a buckle frame, a cross bar, and at least one tool bit. The buckle frame defines a longitudinal frame axis, and the cross bar extends between opposed portions of the buckle frame and defines cross bar axis that is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal frame axis. The tool bit is pivotally coupled to the cross bar and is pivotable about the cross bar axis. The tool bit is sized and positioned to be captured between the end flap segment and the body segment when the end flap segment is in the looped configuration.
