Carbon calculator


Part of my idea is to monitor how much energy people use each day at home and when they travel. I came across a new piece of design creating by actonc02.com which allows you to calculate your carbon footprint. The only problem with this piece of design is that the user has to answer a series of questions that takes quite a while to find out their carbon footprint. Also I feel that this is not a very accurate way of doing this, as it does not measure on monitor anythin in your lifestyle.

Although my idea tells the users their carbon footprint. it will also tell them how there energy bill will be, and how many miles they have travelled. This will all be done accurately through new technology that allows you to monitor energy you use at home and how many miles you travel by car.
