App Profile: Decarbon: Climate Change App

Rating: 5/5

Having done a lot of carbon apps that take ages to set up only to get estimated numbers about yourself, this was so quick (maybe even less than 2 minutes for me to setup) and it had real data about me I’ve never seen calculated (i.e. my purchases). I liked being able to switch to show I use renewable energy at home and that it provided more actions for me to take beyond measuring my footprint. Even after I checked off the reductions I‘ve made there were still lots left for me to do. And I like that I can offset here as well - all in one place.

As someone who doesn’t know much about carbon offsetting / budgeting, I think the app does a good job introducing these concepts to me and most importantly, visualizing how my every day purchases are impacting the environment. The dynamic offsets feature and easy setup with your bank makes tracking a seamless experience, and I look forward to reducing my carbon footprint! The app seems to have some cosmetic bugs that need to be addressed, but otherwise, I can see myself using this fairly regularly.

Decarbon tracks my daily purchases which is useful to me as I learn more about my own carbon footprint and my impact. I love the user guide which explains how the app works. Super easy and very digestible. I had no issues with setting up my bank and navigating the app. The app itself is also very clean, user-friendly, and fun! Will continue to update the the app, play with its features, and learn more on the user guide! Great for those who are trying to be more mindful of their environmental impact and not sure where to start!
