Carbon tracking is great, but how do we actually lower our carbon footprints and, more importantly, stop climate change? This is really freakin’ hard.
In Decarbon, we call anything that helps in this effort a “climate action”. Pretty simple!
Now, climate actions will often directly lower your personal carbon footprint. So the more you participate, the more you’ll see your footprint shrink in your carbon budget.
That said, climate action involves so much more than just lowering your personal footprint!
Some of the climate actions suggested by Decarbon might not directly tie to your own footprint, but are nevertheless just as if not more important for the bigger mission of curbing climate change. For example, writing a letter to our government representatives won’t lower our footprints immediately but is a great way to demand bigger change.
Decarbon provides two ways for you to take action and reduce your emissions:
We believe that informed group action is the most impactful way to act on climate — and it’s way more fun. That’s what our monthly collabs facilitate!
Collab = collaboration 😊
See past collabs on our blog.
Decarbon’s monthly collabs bring everyone in the app together to work towards the same climate action goal.
These collabs are hosted by a different leader in the climate movement each month. They could be scientists, teachers, activists, entrepreneurs, non-profit leaders… anyone who’s doing something about climate change! 🙌
