ICT services help in developing environmental scans of surrounding regions (consider also the idea of a ecological framework for governance by redefining political boundaries along the [[bioregions]]) such as soil inventory analysis and life cycle modeling to balance sustainability with financial viability. | ||
An [[Integrated Farming]] System for example would be certified for carbon credits, by using a internet link up and sensors to gather real time information at the facility to determine and compare the offsets of both production and construction activities and the resulting greenhouse emissions and this would be subtracted from the estimated amount of carbon captured by the system. Effective and easy to use information and communication technologies will be vital to developing more holistic measuring and modeling tools that include the collection of site data, GIS, and lifecycle analysis model that includes a training process that is accessible and understandable by the grassroots. | An [[Integrated Farming]] System for example would be certified for carbon credits, by using a internet link up and sensors to gather real time information at the facility to determine and compare the offsets of both production and construction activities and the resulting greenhouse emissions and this would be subtracted from the estimated amount of carbon captured by the system.
