This paper presents a novel approach to carbon credit trading with ambient computing technologies, particularly RFID or barcode technology. It introduces RFID tags as certificates for the rights to claim carbon credits in carbon offsetting and trading. It enables buyers, including end-consumers, that buy products with carbon credits to hold and claim these credits unlike existing carbon offsetting schemes. It also supports the simple intuitive trading of carbon credits by trading RFID tags coupled to the credits. The approach has been already constructed and evaluated with real customers and real carbon credits in a real supply chain.
