Abstract: A system includes a sensor at a first location proximate a polluting system to collect environmental data of a first type and an energy consumption monitoring platform at the first location to generate energy consumption data associated with the polluting system. The system includes a controller coupled to the sensor and the monitoring platform to direct communication of environmental data and energy consumption data to a remote computing server. A direct air capture (DAC) system at a second location removes a selected pollutant from ambient air and isolates a concentrated form of the pollutant as a raw material. A derivative product creation (DPC) system at a third location produces a derivative product from the raw material. The remote computing system accumulates pollutant credits based on removal of the selected pollutant by the DAC system and dissipates pollutant credits based on some of the energy consumption data.
