Emissary “Credit Cards” to Measure Your Environmental Impact
By Michael Santo

The Emissary card would look and act like a regular credit card … but it would also be a smart card. It would track the rate at which a person pollutes. Users are allocated a certain number of “carbon credits”, which are used up as he uses the card.
“As far as I understand, those people who have a high impact on the environment would use their credits quickly and suffer penalties for any further impact by paying more for goods and services that impact the environment,” said Chaz Nandra, co-founding director at Design Stream. Source: News.com
We Say: Besides the obvious question … will I get any miles, besides being reminded about my impact on the world 
… I have other thoughts here.
John Corliss says:
Well, I must say as somebody who has never owned or used a credit card, this is yet another reason not to. And as far as such a card actually succeeding, it’s not likely there will be too many takers. Whoever came up with this idea probably has good intentions, but lack of public demand will quickly kill the idea.
