8- Solving the problem


I have come up with a solution for the rising climate change crisis. In order to personally combat this problem, I have come up with the idea to create an app that personal tracks an individual’s carbon footprint. The app with calculate this based on your diet, mode of transportation, and consumer decisions. With the rise of sea levels, stronger wildfires, and constant deforestation, it is imperative to do the most we can as individuals in our persona; lives to fight this problem. This app will also access your environmental awareness and send you notifications about environmentally friendly products that can be bought at your local supermarket. This idea will be a hybrid, part service part product. Because it is an app it is technically a product however it will also provide services. I full heartedly believe in this idea and have faith it will have multiple applications in the future especially as climate change gets worse.

  1. Creating an app that allows people to directly see their carbon footprint is a great idea. Part of the problem is that people do not even understand how every part of their life affects climate change. The notification about environmentally friendly products at the supermarket is also a unique idea that I think would be great!

  2. Hi Alex, creating an app so that people can see their carbon footprint is a really good idea. An app is also extremely convenient and would be at the tips of everyone's fingers, literally. Making the ability to see your carbon footprint so accessible is really important. Also, once someone sees what affect they have on the world it might surprise them and encourage them to become more environmentally friendly.
