Esri India launches Carbon Footprint Awareness App

‘Carbon Jagruk’ or ‘CarbonAware’ app enables citizens to estimate and reduce their carbon footprint. The application is extremely simple to use. It requires no login or download and collects no personal information of the user. The app can be accessed by clicking here.

The announcement is part of Esri India’s endeavor to promote a sustainable lifestyle through carbon-conscious behavior and choices. This app will help in estimating the causes of a higher carbon footprint at the community level. Esri India plans to share this data with local administrations so that they can take measures to educate citizens.

Every time we travel by car, take a flight, or use an electrical appliance we leave a trail of gases that build up in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. These emissions are forcing our climate to change for the worse. The CarbonAware App is an initiative by Esri India to help each one of us to understand how much carbon footprint we are creating at an individual level and what we can do to reduce it.
