Inspiration

In a world where corporations are responsible for up to 70% of global greenhouse gas emissions, it's crucial to address the root of climate change: consumer support for these corporations.

What it does

Climate Criminals is a browser extension that uses a sophisticated algorithm to identify and highlight unsustainable companies that are contributing to climate change as you browse.

How we built it

Developed using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

Challenges we ran into

Allowing for a clean highlighting feature was quite challenging. Took a lengthy process and had to learn OOP Javascript which I didn't really know how to do.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Clean, functional product that should be very helpful in guiding users towards more sustainable habits. An idea that doesn't widely exist elsewhere and could make a real impact.

What we learned

Visual design and OOP.

What's next for Climate Criminals

Further bolstering data accuracy; potentially incorporating personalized suggestions based on the company being highlighted at the moment.
