Environmental problems like climate change and pollution are increasing every year, but many people are unaware of how their daily activities contribute to carbon emissions. I was inspired to build a simple tool that helps individuals understand their personal impact on the environment and encourages them to make eco-friendly choices. EcoTrack: Carbon Footprint Calculator is a simple application that allows users to estimate their daily carbon footprint based on activities like transportation and electricity usage. The app: Calculates approximate CO₂ emissions Displays the total carbon footprint Suggests ways to reduce environmental impact
Challenges I ran into Understanding how to calculate carbon emissions accurately Keeping the project simple while still meaningful Designing a clean and user-friendly interface
What I learned Basics of environmental science and carbon emissions How real-world problems can be solved using simple technology Improving my coding and problem-solving skills
