Inspiration
Pollution and global warming are problems we need to be aware of. Technology and app development can help others to be aware of this problem. Motivation and rewards sometimes work well to get more people involved.
How it works
You use this app before starting a trip and after finishing it. The app calculates the CO2 emission level of your trip and you obtain points. You can exchange your points for fantastic rewards at local stores each month. Check which companies and rewards are available each month with this app.

Challenges I ran into
To get a better understanding of Xamarin.Forms and integrate it with SDKs and APIs, such as moj.io and AT&T. To get a formula to obtain a car's CO2 emission levels during a trip.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Contribution to help the planet. Participation in a contest. This is my second Xamarin.Forms I develop during this month.
What I learned
Everybody needs to help the planet. Even if I don't use a car, I still emit CO2 as a result of other daily activities. Even with an app, we can contribute to give our kids a better planet. I got a better understanding of Xamarin.Forms and how it easily makes possible to create cross-platform applications. How to use moj.io SDK and integrate it with AT&T API.
What's next for Co2Rewards
Partner with some companies interested in providing rewards to people who contribute to a better life by reducing their CO2 emissions. Develop this app in 2 other platforms (iOS and Windows Phone) Publish the app
