Pocketweb's Pocket Life® Platform Powers CO2 Solution Suite To Neutralize Consumer Goods
Interactive CO2 solution suite "Get-neutral" for individuals and companies will utilize award-winning Pocket Life® Platform to drive CO2 reduction of private consumption
SAN FRANCISCO, CA (December 20, 2011) - Pocketweb Ltd., the global award-winning innovator that integrates secure location-based and social media services across web and mobile platforms, has announced that German-based,
independent CO2 solution suite, "Get-neutral" will utilize the
Pocket Life® Platform.
"Get-neutral" aims to provide a platform for individuals to better understand their CO2 emissions while providing
tools to assist them in neutralizing their CO2 consumption.
Private consumption is the cause of almost half of the world's CO2 emissions. "Get-neutral" is the world's first online platform for climate-neutral consumption, allowing users to compensate their CO2 consumption by understanding the
impact of products they have purchased and supporting climate projects. "Get-neutral's" personal carbon footprint (PCF) database is continuously being extended and already contains several tens of thousands of products of daily use.
How it works for the end-user:
- Sign up for the "Get-neutral" online platform at no cost.
- Users scan or enter the barcode of their product with the "Get-neutral" app for iPhone, or on the web.
- By scanning the product's GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) the user can identify the item's Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) and neutralize it.
- Regular campaigns allow sponsors and partners to highlight brands and products and promote climate friendly consumption behaviour.
- Users receive points and badges and share their experience within the "Get-neutral" community.
"Get-neutral" is currently available as web application and on the iPhone, with plans for an Android version launch in early 2012. "Get-neutral" offers the service at no cost to consumers and is available in all German-speaking markets.
In the second phase of development, the offering will be opened to users in multiple international markets. A recent collaboration with leading advertizing agency "Grey G2 Group", "Get-neutral" aims to become the market leader for CO2 neutralizing.
