My classmate Emmanuel has gotten IRB approval to run a quick study of Somerville residents -- see if ppl might be willing to track carbon emissions, and if so, how he can help! I can vouch for Emma's good intent. I had a convo w/him today about if he does produce an app, what might be helpful (imo) and how important data privacy is.
Emma needs 50 Somerville participants to start the project. I hope folks here might be willing to help? https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScYI2lPeli8nTv-BpZ2TxbNKkwdjxIXD6m_GbG3N_c8fZeMfA/viewform?usp=dialog

Potentially of interest for non-Somerville residents as well as SomerPoli folks, you can also go to the EPA website and calculate your household's carbon footprint, so you know what the federal gov't thinks is impactful for carbon tracking: https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/carbon-footprint-calculator (I did this, and had some feedback on things that people in Somerville might do that the EPA doesn't look at, tbh.) #carbon #ecology #SomervilleMA #SomerPoli
