Inspiration
The idea for Green Commute was born from the increasing need to reduce carbon emissions and promote eco-friendly travel options. Seeing the congestion and pollution in urban areas, I wanted to create a solution that encourages people to choose sustainable modes of transportation like cycling, walking and public transport.
How we built it
Challenges we ran into
- Data Availability: Accessing real-time public transport data for different regions was challenging.
- User Adoption: Encouraging users to switch from personal vehicles to green alternatives required behavioral nudges.
- Optimizing Routes: Balancing speed, convenience, and eco-friendliness in commute suggestions was complex.
What we learned
- The impact of transportation on the environment.
- User behavior and what motivates people to adopt green commuting habits.
- Integrating real-time data sources for traffic and public transit information.
- Optimizing UI/UX for a smooth user experience.
