INTRODUCTION
Although there is still debate about whether the current period is the continuation of the modern process or a new process, there is a point that almost everyone agrees; it is that we live in a world very different from the 18th century, which is the most central period of modern beginnings. This difference is clearly seen in our production and consumption relations in our globalizing world, in addition to our lifestyle, opportunities, needs, satisfaction points and relations with each other.
In this new era, the consumption behaviors of people differ greatly compared to the previous periods of human history. Even social stratification in some societies has been shaped by the consumption habits of individuals. Therefore, consumption has become one of the most important concepts of social life in the period we live in.
However, the new consumption concept has some environmental impacts. Pleasure-centered individuals consume much more than previously consumed people, and consumed objects are often left on the planet as waste. The high demand for goods caused by this increase in consumption leads to more production. As production increases, consumption is increased to a greater extent by advertising and other marketing techniques used to achieve consumption. A vicious cycle of production and consumption is thus triggered. It would not be wrong to say that this crazy volume increase, which is referred to as “economic growth" by the economic circles, has much more environmental damages than supposed and constitutes a pessimistic picture of the future of the planet we live in.
Meet Metal Packaging Token
Although we all know this basically, we know that since this ”we refer to the world's population, we need to start doing something about it. At the time of writing, we believe that all readers are very familiar with the brutal images of the dominant plastic pollution our planet is experiencing. The aim of MPT is to promote the world's metal packaging industry.
In doing so, MPT believes that the planet used in packaging will reduce the volume of less healthy materials.
What does MPT aim?
MPT will reward individual users with MPT tokens when they return empty metal boxes to MPT deposition points.
MPT will create a decentralized currency that can be used to pay for all products packaged in metal containers. MPT can be used to pay for all products/services that contribute to the metal packaging industry. MPT will be the new standard to be used as payment to commercial agents (metal packaging industry) instead of commissions (fees) in fiat currencies.
MPT will be used horizontally and vertically throughout the entire metal packaging supply chain. MPT will reduce the size of the secondary / unclassified material trade. MPT will endeavor to restore the token value of the MPT by a (small) percentage of the production capacity of the steelmakers.
How will the system work?
The first target market of MPT will be the end of consumers. MPT will reward end-users who return empty metal packaging containers (after use) to specific MPT beds. How will this system work? MPT’s two founding partners have extensive technical and commercial experience in the metal packaging industry.
Together with heir partnership (currently under NDA), MPT will ensure that a unique material-related ”(tin/aluminum/ TFS) and“ weight-related QR code is printed on all metal packaging containers. Each identical body (material + weight basis) will have the same QR code. Different boxes (material/weight) will have a different QR code. The QR code represents a predetermined amount of MPT tokens that will be transferred to the recipient's wallet after the boxes have been dropped to an MPT release point. Each MPT deposit point also has a unique embedded QR code (location-related).
This feature will greatly facilitate place recycling location-statistics ”. The MPT will know exactly which geographical locations work well and which locations deserve more attention. By scanning the boxes in the MPT deposit scanner, the MPT deposition point printer will generate a receipt with another unique QR code representing the total MPT amount for the total of newly deposited boxes. The MPT mobile application then scans this QR code on the received receipt, which will immediately transfer the MPT to the depositor's mobile wallet. Individuals will be encouraged to sort, collect and deposit empty boxes.
The MPT depository machine only turns on when an MPT QR code is scanned. Internally, the machine will separate the steel from aluminum by magnetism and will have an internal scrap compactor that facilitates emptying with built-in waste disposal services. MPT held several meetings with potential manufacturers of their future with a “life recycling machine”. The main outcome of these meetings is that the cost price of an MPT recycling machine prototype will be approximately US $ 20,000. Needless to say, along with the increased volume, the production cost will result in substantially lower figures.
Why We need Metal Packaging Token?
In addition to the obvious reason that we really help the environment by holding MPT tokens, and therefore the welfare of our planet, that MPT tokens become exchangeable in (decentralized) exchanges. This means that owners can trade for EOS or other encryption currencies. In this way, payment in fiat currencies would, of course, be possible.
Although MPT tokens can be traded or exchanged on the stock exchanges, MPT team, believe that using tokens will result in a much better result for all interested parties.
CONCLUSION
I have always liked the fact that blockchain technology tries to solve global problems. Because we can reduce energy consumption with the blockchain. In this way, we can make our world a cleaner place. It is no secret that green energy should spread.
Not only in the blockchain, but also in the other products we use, we should always give priority to projects that give importance to green energy.
It is important to remember that the MPT project is an EOS-based project. And it's already on the exchanges.
