Bike to work and know what you contribute
Most of us will every now and then grab a bike to get to the office or an appointment. Wouldn't it be great if you would know how much CO2 you would prevent from being emitted by not taking the car? The Japanese have a nice gadget for this!
Treehugger reports: "e*meters is a gadget you can use to record the number of kilometres cycled in one day - and the total CO2 savings made versus car travel for the same distance.
Total km cycled, total CO2 avoided
The 'e' in e*meters stands for 'eco' and 'enjoy'. When you use your e*meters you can keep track of distances travelled and you can upload your records to the accompanying online Social Network and become part of a nation-wide community of cyclists doing their part for the environment."
Maybe something to deploy during the 'bike to work' campaign which is organised in various countries during European Mobility Week?
