What Company is Offering:
Carbonrally is a web-based activism platform offering individuals and groups a fun, simple and social way to have a measurable impact on climate change.
How It Works:
They would create a place where many people could discover and commit to small, positive actions over time. People on the site could propose great ideas for reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and the community would choose the best ideas to pursue as a team. They’d track the collective impacts, and show the power of many people getting the job done together. Bit by bit, the community would learn the connections between climate and lifestyle, and rack-up literally tons of carbon benefits along the way. The Internet would make the process surprisingly fun and social… they’d celebrate and we’d compete!
They’ll post a Featured Challenge every few weeks on the site, and they’ll notify you by email when thye do. Most challenges are easy, short-term actions, but theye’ll throw in a doozy from time to time to keep it interesting. If the Featured Challenge doesn’t apply to you, or is something you’re already in the habit of doing, then you can look at the Previous Challenges where you might find some other actions that make more sense for you.
You can see how you’re doing by visiting your My Carbon Page. Or, view the Total Impact Map for a real-time snapshot of Rally results in different parts of the country. There are also impact maps associated with each challenge. On any map, you can click on a green bar to learn more about the people and action in a certain city.
