We often hear about Global warming, carbon emissions and how it is impacting our Earth due to various natural calamities. We consider that this is happening due to growing industrialisation and reasons other than us. It is a time to find that how much we ourself are responsible for contributing Carbon emissions and how to reduce it.
Hence OnlyPlanet.in have taken a step to aware people to measure their personal carbon footprint – the impact of their lifestyle choices on the planet.
What is Carbon Footprint?
Carbon footprint is essentially a measure of how much the earth’s resources are depleted with each and every product we buy and consume. People, places, events and everything has a carbon footprint.
You can calculate your own carbon footprint free by visiting OnlyPlanet.in
For example Carbon footprint Calculator asks, How much vehicle we are using in distance or time? How much amount of electricity bills we are getting? On the basis of this we get ourCarbon Footprint.
About Founder and App
Sunita Rajesh who quit her job in data research and analysis came up with an idea to make people aware about how we impact our environment.
The result was an app called Shado to calculate our Personal Carbon Footprint, i.e. it is an estimation of carbondioxide and green house gas emissions an individual is responsible for in a given year. How much we use electricity, how much cloth we purchase are some of the parameters used in the App.
