Inspiration
Living in St. John's without access to a car can be very limiting in mobility and the only solutions often seem either slow or bad for the environment.
We wanted to build something that represents meaningful change towards a cleaner tomorrow.
What it does
Link users travelling to similar locations with other users and then map routing based on least energy consumption.
TagAlong will work with regulators to secure carbon credits for every metric tonne of carbon emissions saved.
The credits will then be sold to manufacturers looking to offset emissions.
Users will be able to redeem Carbon Points at any given moment at a fixed rate.
