Bobo’s Partners With Acorn, Purchases Carbon Removal Units, Supporting Sustainable Local Agroforestry Farming Practices Around The World


“At Bobo’s we’re committed to minimizing our environmental impact throughout our supply chain,” said TJ McIntyre, CEO of Bobo’s. “While we always strive to make decisions to improve the livelihoods of our people and the planet, our production process inevitably generates carbon emissions that we’re accountable for. Acorn’s revolutionary approach to carbon removal credits benefiting smallholder farmers across the globe made this a win-win. Acorn is the perfect partner to help us achieve carbon neutrality.”

While historically the carbon credit market has received its fair share of skepticism, Acorn is disrupting the traditional carbon offset model. The company has adopted an entirely new approach to helping responsible organizations, like Bobo’s, reach their sustainability goals leveraging the power of agroforestry. Agroforestry is the planting and integration of different species, such as fruit or nut bearing trees, and various crops on the field. Adopting agroforestry practices significantly benefits local farmers because it delivers more diverse crop yields, increased biodiversity and improved soil quality on their farms. It also helps local farmer’s businesses become more climate resilient, diversifies their income and improves food security within their local community. As the trees and plants mature and grow, they produce more and more yield while sequestering an increased amount of carbon.

“With Acorn we are delighted to partner with sustainable frontrunners like Bobo’s to support smallholder farmers globally. Their transition to carbon-capturing agroforestry has an incredible impact on various levels. Biodiversity increases, local welfare improves, and our planet cools down — everyone benefits,” said Jelmer van de Mortel, Head of Acorn

The amount of carbon captured by the trees and plants planted as part of Acorn’s agroforestry program is monitored with remote sensing techniques. Each ton of captured carbon represents one carbon removal unit (CRU). These CRU’s, which are traceable, certified and nature based, are sold to responsible companies like Bobo’s. But it’s the local farmers who benefit the most. With 80 percent of the sales revenue going directly to the farmers, it creates a substantial additional income stream and helps them adopt a more future-proof and sustainable way of farming. The remaining 20 percent is split evenly between Acorn and its local partners who help coordinate with the local farmers.

About Bobo’s

Bobo’s has been making people everywhere feel like family with fresh-baked, wholesome snacks since 2003 when BOBO and her mother decided to whip up their favorite homemade oat bar recipe in their Boulder, CO kitchen. Today, the Bobo’s family of products include the original oat bars and has expanded with Oat Bites, Stuff’d Bites, Nut-Butter Filled Bars, Toaster Pastries, Protein Bars and now Dipp’d bars that can be found in natural and conventional grocers around the country. Every healthy Bobo’s treat is still 100% gluten free, kosher, and non-GMO certified.

About Acorn

Acorn, part of Rabobank, supports smallholder farmers in developing countries transition to agroforestry. Together with local partners, we facilitate the funding and training needed by farmers to start their agroforestry transition. Transforming the sequestered CO2 through agroforestry into Carbon Removal Units (CRUs), we offer carbon credits to responsible corporates to help them reach their climate goals. The growth of the trees is measured with satellite imagery, AI and LiDAR, and certified by ICROA-accredited Plan Vivo.

With 80% of the sales revenue going directly to the farmers, it creates an additional income stream and helps them adopt a more climate-resilient way of farming that improves food security, biodiversity, and financial independence.

JDASC requests SEC Chairman Gary Gensler to acknowledge 21 million bitcoin hard cap is not guaranteed before approving bitcoin ETFs


Deters continued, “Not having an absolute bitcoin supply cap of 21 million bitcoins is not necessarily a “bad thing”. Instead it could potentially be exploited to increase bitcoin market penetration. In one scenario, if the bitcoin price was to hit $100,000, bitcoin‘s ecosystem, including miners, full node validators and the bitcoin core maintainers could all agreed to implement a 1000 to 1 bitcoin split, similar in nature to a stock split. The BIP proposed implementation would go out to the entire bitcoin consensus voting base. If accepted, instead of 100,000,000 Satoshi per bitcoin, there would be 100,000. Every bitcoin wallet address balance would be increased by 1000x. The most important aspect to this imagined BIP implementation is reducing the bitcoin cost from $100,000 to $100. At such a low price, it could easily result in a tsunami wave of new retail bitcoin buyers. This would be initiated by the fact investors prefer to own “full shares” in an enterprise and not “fractional shares”. In this example, a full share is one bitcoin, one Satoshi is the “fractional share”.

Deters further stated, “Another scenario could involve a BIP which increases per block mining reward from the current 6.25 bitcoins to the original 50 bitcoins. Every bitcoin address balance would be increased based on the mining reward percentage increase. Another and not out of the realm of possibility worst case scenario could involve the next generation after GenAlpha. A generation that may quite possibly become outraged with the severe consequences of global warming, out of control consumerism and massive disproportionate global wealth distribution. This generation may not want to support a financial system such as bitcoin in which currently 90% of the wealth and supply is controlled by less than 10% of bitcoin owners. In this scenario, a scorch and burn effort to destroy the bitcoin blockchain could quickly gain global momentum. This could easily be fueled by an underlying resentment of bitcoin billionaire investors who gained an insane amount of wealth without contributing anything back to society or the planet. This possible scenario could feasibly become a worldwide political and social justice rallying call for a financial revolution, ironically for the same reason why bitcoin was originally created”.

Deters concluded, “I am not predicting or encouraging any of the described BIP acceptance scenarios, only that those and other potential bitcoin blockchain BIP scenarios are all possible. As the founder of JDASC, a public benefit and consumer protection corporation, I am simply performing my fiduciary duties. JDASC has a responsibility to protect potential consumer bitcoin ETF investors by ensuring all facts are presented and all miss representations are exposed, This responsibility includes presenting both best case and worst case potential investment scenarios as well.

Chinese President Makes New Year Address to Ring in 2024


Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a New Year address to ring in 2024 on Sunday. He emphasized that the Chinese economy has sustained the momentum of recovery with steady progress made in pursuing high-quality development.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — CGTN America & CGTN UN release “Chinese President Makes New Year Address to Ring in 2024”

Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a New Year address to ring in 2024 on Sunday. He emphasized that the Chinese economy has sustained the momentum of recovery with steady progress made in pursuing high-quality development.

China has achieved a plentiful harvest for the 20th year in a row, Xi said. “Waters have become clearer and mountains greener. New advances have been made in pursuing rural revitalization. New progress has been made in fully revitalizing northeast China,” he added.

The Xiong’an New Area is growing fast, the Yangtze River Economic Belt is full of vitality and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is embracing new development opportunities, Xi said.

President Xi said new heights were scaled in China’s innovation-driven development in 2023.

“The C919 large passenger airliner entered commercial service. The Chinese-built large cruise ship completed its trial voyage. The Shenzhou spaceships are continuing their missions in space. The deep-sea manned submersible Fendouzhe reached the deepest ocean trench,” Xi said.

Xi vowed to deepen reform and opening up across the board, calling for further enhancement of people’s confidence in development, promotion of vibrant development of the economy, and a redoubling of efforts to boost education, advance science and technology, and cultivate talents.

“We will continue to support Hong Kong and Macao in harnessing their distinctive strengths, better integrating themselves into China’s overall development, and securing long-term prosperity and stability,” Xi said.

China will surely be reunified,” Xi stressed, adding that all Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits should be bound by a common sense of purpose and share in the glory of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

He also discussed global development in his address. “No matter how the global landscape may evolve, peace and development remain the underlying trend, and only cooperation for mutual benefit can deliver,” Xi said.

China is willing to work closely with the international community for the common good of humanity, build a community with a shared future for mankind, and make the world a better place for all, he added.
