This was an idea proposed by Sven Aerts to develop and unlock the Low Carbon Economy Potential or "[[CO2e-Certificates]]" or "Kyoto Protocol"-Potential of OLPC's projects and mission. It briefly had its own site proposed at [http://www.olpco2e.org OLPCO2e.org]; however the project as a whole did not proceed.

''OLPCO2e'' was a proposed project to somehow associate OLPC with electronic CO2 certificates - since the XO laptops are some of the lowest-power and greenest laptops around. The proposal mentioned the names of many distinguished global initiatives, including the second UN Millennium Development Goal.
Some highlights of the proposed, now defunct, idea:
* It was frequently connected to the UN goal of Universal Primary Education by 2015, and to other UN programs such as ''Agenda 21'', without prelude.
* An "Animated OLPCO2e Assistant" was discussed and designed
* A [http://sites.google.com/site/olpco2eteamprivate/olpco2e-business-plan-1/olpco2e-total-quality-control-and-management Quality Control Panel] was developed for the proposal
* It had its own [http://sites.google.com/site/olpco2e/ OLPCO2e Virtual/Wiki Office]... on a ''different'' wiki... and a separate [http://groups.google.be/group/olpco2e Discussion Group].
* It even had its own [http://sites.google.com/site/olpco2eteamprivate/Home "staff & Kernel Team"] wiki. Just like some organizations we could name.
* It briefly had its own [http://www.google.com/calendar Google Calendar] and office hours.


No concrete connections between OLPC and these certificates was made, and the project was abandoned in mid-2009. This page is kept for historical purposes.
