Giant Latin American ride sharing company, Cabify is set to utilize blockchain technology to make up for its toxic carbon releases.  

Vide its recent disclosure just this previous week, the company has liaised with a Valencia Spain headquartered FinTech outfit, ClimateTrade, to trace its carbon discharges in real time as it goes about its business.
