Inspiration

Typically many people do not know how much carbon different food manufacures use the ditch carbon api allows this to be seamlessly integreted into an app.

What it does

Allows people to add recipies seamlessly and gives them a carbon rating to make them more eco friendly Has the ability to scan products by barcodes and determine their carbon footprint by way of the DitchCarbon API. Provides recommendations on ingredients from different manufacturers with a smaller carbon footprint

For the text generation, we used the text transformer model t5-recipe-generation. However, we selected more carbon friendly ingredients to use in these recipes using the ditch carbon API so that the overall carbon foodprints of our recipes were reduced as much as possible.

How we built it

Barcode database

Created a csv file of many food manufacturers using the ditch carbon api

Open food facts.org - html scraper

android studio - kotlin

Python - Flask, bunch of api's
