To reduce the amount of [[Externalities|externality]] minimisation required it would be best to start from a point where most of this is done already. For instance starting a coal mining firm would not be the best place to start as it creates a large amount of externalities, CO2, emissions, biodiversity loss etc... So lowest impact... 100% autonomous system would be preferable. A [[Decentralized Autonomous Organization]] (DAO) would be perfect however as of yet the technology only allows for semi autonomous organisations. | To reduce the amount of [[Externalities|externality]] minimisation required it would be best to start from a point where most of this is done already.

=== 1 - Renewable Hosting === | |||
BurnZero is hosted on a industry standard server meaning it is more than likely powered by coal. The first action to address therefore would be to minimise the externality caused by the server by using a renewable energy source. | BurnZero is hosted on a industry standard server meaning it is more than likely powered by coal.
