Count Down Your Carbon
Anyone recall the Greenolution idea I pushed several times since last Dec? The site with a community-based goal for reducing CO2 emissions that would motivate millions to save $ while saving the environment? It’s finally here – www.CountDownYourCarbon.org
It’s funny how the universe works. I’ve been too busy to launch this side project myself, but wait a few months & a site comes out eerily similar to the one I described. They don’t seem to have a widget yet that would allow people to display their individual impact alongside the global impact & goal as described in my Greenolution pitch, but everything else is there and they’ve done a great job with it! I am thrilled to see this site looking so good.
Also notice on their fluorescent lighting page they have a small link to help you buy them, with an affiliate ID embedded in the link so they make a commission on those sales. That type of link was the primary revenue driver I had planned in phase 1 of the site as well. I’m excited to see this site flourish – they’ve already reduced over 35 million pounds of CO2 since their inception. I think I’ll make an account and register my energy saving stuff now.
