Project Description

Vision/Problem Statement/Pitch

This is a platform that allow citizens to track how they are reducing carbon emissions and to share their progress and achievements with others. By connecting with others on the platform, we can feel like we're making a difference together and reach big emission reduction goals which seemed impossible.

We all know that we produce emissions, but often times it is unclear how to reduce them. The platform educates through targeted learning material to enhance the quality of life (e.g. reduce time wasted on the road) and finances (everyone wants to save money!).
To accelerate our efforts to reduce emissions the platform can help connect people to green companies instead of reinventing the wheel.

Why?

1.I want to share the efforts I've made and encourage others to do the same. We are winning together! Broken window theory.
2. I want to feel like I'm making a difference.
3. I want to reduce emissions, but don't know how. There may be some opportunities to improve my life and save money too.
4. I want to make it even easier to reduce emissions. Are there any companies I could use?
