Meet @ClimatiqHQ — their mission is to drive #ClimateAction by helping businesses be transparent about their carbon emissions through embedded carbon intelligence🌱
They’re doing it with Fastly’s Compute@Edge and @fauna. Learn more 🌎

It's an exciting day for us: we just launched the Climatiq emission tracking API on #ProductHunt 🎉🎉 -- go check it out, any questions or feedback you may have, we'd love to hear it!

Climatiq is on product hunt! Check it out if you're curious about how easy carbon calculations can be. There's a free-tier, so if you want to experience sub-100ms API calls for carbon calculations, grab an API key and give us an updoot on PH!

Some statistics to start the year:
During 2021 Bitcoin consumed 134 TWh in total, which is comparable to the electrical energy consumed by a country like Argentina.
Related CO2 emissions were ~64 Mt; enough to negate the entire global net savings from deploying EVs.

About a week ago we woke up to something weird at @ClimatiqHQ - our logs were showing a massive increase in traffic 🔥
We went from normal traffic of some hundred requests an hour to over 10k every hour. The spike's so big that our graphs don't show normal traffic anymore!(1/n)📜

Australian scientists and artists are looking to hold the world accountable for the Earth's future by creating an 'indestructible' storage device to record humanity's handling of the climate change crisis reut.rs/3y13dVP 1/5

We certainly share the desire for accessible data to inform pathways to net-zero emissions! This is why, we are building an open database that anyone can use and contribute to: climatiq.io/ #OpenData

My new post with @_HannahRitchie is out.
We are trying to improve the situation of the @IEA.
The title is: ‘The IEA publishes the detailed, global energy data we all need, but its funders force it behind paywalls. Let’s ask them to change it.’ ourworldindata.org/iea-open-…
At @ClimatiqHQ we use Rust for our Edge distributed API. Efficiency is only one of the many good reasons, but an important one to be consistent with our mission researchgate.net/publication…
This is great!
Push a button, remove CO2 from the atmosphere. This is the craziest thing I ever built in no-code @bubble @ClimatiqHQ @nanransohoff @StripeDev
Climatiq raises $2m to build the Wikipedia of carbon footprinting via @siftedeu sifted.eu/articles/climatiq/

After looking at several Error Handling techniques from C#, C++, GO, and Rust, I've concluded that try-catch EH should be abandoned.
- EH is expensive when you throw.
- EH is expensive even when you don't throw.
- EH is hard to get right.
- EH is hard to implement.

At @ClimatiqHQ we are hiring to build a new open data platform using Next.js, Typescript and Rust (optional). Join our highly motivated and talented team and fight climate change with Open Source: climatiq.io/jobs/full-stack-…
I'm beyond excitement to announce what we have been working on the last months: climatiq.io/news/introducing… #EarthDay2021
