5 Online Tools That Can Help You Lead A More Sustainable Life
January 22, 2022

With problems like global warming and pollution becoming a bigger threat with every passing day, sustainability is the need of the hour. Living in the digital age, it can be quite the task to take some time out from a packed schedule and go out of your way to ensure that your lifestyle is a sustainable one.

However, the concept of sustainability needs to creep into our daily lives as well if we really want to stick to habits that will improve the state of the planet. And that’s why we’ve got 5 apps and online tools here for you today to help you ease into a sustainable lifestyle digitally.

  • 6 Conclusion

Forest

We’ve all found ourselves thinking, “I use my phone way too much.” An average person in the US checks his phone at least 110 times a day. Phone addiction can take away from our optimal productivity levels, and if you’re trying to reduce your screen time, Forest might be the app for you.

Forest can not only help you combat cell phone addiction but has also started an initiative to plant more trees. The app, once activated, locks all other apps on your phone to stop you from slacking off and forces you to concentrate on the tasks you have at hand. A virtual tree grows as you work, and once finished, grants you in-app coins. These in-app coins allow you to plant real trees so that you can aid the environment while also being productive.

Enel X

Enel X is one of the leading energy transformation companies out there that helps create a sustainable environment at both a personal and commercial level. Whether you’re just trying to make your home more environment-friendly or improve your organization’s decarbonization strategy, Enel X has some amazing tools for you.

Enel X can help you achieve your sustainability goals and is available in 20 countries, partnering with responsible organizations and homeowners worldwide. They’ve also got a special demand management program created for production units that offer rewards to these production units for adopting sustainable energy policies.

Loss Of the Night

Light pollution is quickly proving itself to be much bigger of a threat than researchers could have anticipated. Excessive outdoor lighting has the power to turn night into day, and while this is useful for the average person, this phenomenon disrupts the ecological balance of the wildlife and increases levels of carbon dioxide. Moreover, light pollution is also a massive hindrance to astronomical research activities.

Loss Of The Night allows us to become citizen scientists and report the brightness of the areas surrounding us. To measure skyglow, the app asks you to identify whether you can see certain stars in the sky, and your responses lead to the creation of a database for researchers trying to reduce light pollution. If you’re a stargazing enthusiast who wants to help the environment, this app’s perfect for you to stick to your hobby productively.

Recycle Coach

Recycling has become a huge part of waste management in many countries, but one thing that we often forget to question is if we are even doing it correctly. Most people have no idea about what goes on inside recycling plants, and therefore, it can be easy to make mistakes.

Recycle Coach aims at helping people recycle their trash the right way, and their guidance is tailored to your household and area specifically. The app collects data on how your region’s recycling plant works and helps you learn new and effective recycling methods so that you can play your part effectively.

Good Guide

There are many products in this day and age claiming to be eco-friendly, but hardly any of them are able to live up to that statement. Making environmentally responsible decisions can be extremely difficult, but Good Guide can help.

Good Guide is an application that allows you to look up brands and products for literally anything under the sky and gives you information on their health, environmental and social impact. It has a database that spans over 60,000 products including toys, consumables, cosmetics, electronics, and much more. The app also helps suggest better alternatives to these products and make buying decisions that are better for both you and the environment.

Conclusion

Developing good habits takes time, but consistent efforts can help you get to a point where they feel innate to you. We’re at a stage where sustainability needs to become an essential part of everyone’s lives. By using these simple yet effective digital means, you can quick start your sustainability journey and start helping the environment today.
