- calculate carbon emissions for each person attending a meeting (travel) plus overheads (heating, lighting etc).
- offer option to offset some or all of the carbon
- offer car pooling by collecting peoples travel plans ahead of time
Using this system would have the added benefit of finding out who intends coming to the meeting - this idea came up at a poorly attended meeting where the room had been booked for larger numbers.
Functionality and Potential sources:
- carbon calculator api - www.amee.cc
- meeting organisation - upcoming
- calendars - google
- car pooling - drijo
Potential Market
- NGOs
- Any group holding meetings that include travel and want to reduce their carbon footprint
