GENIUS TIP
Smart home devices, such as app-enabled thermostats, can cut emissions and costs considerably over their lifetime.
Are you carbon neutral? Apple is aiming to be completely carbon netural by 2030, and its global corporate operations already are. And with the Eevie app on your device, you can head in that direction too.
From driving cars and heating our homes to buying a new MacBook, the things we do have an environmental impact and lead to increased carbon emissions. Fortunately, we are now becoming more and more aware of the changes we need to make. We can change our habits in two ways. One, we can take steps to reduce our environmental impact; and two, we can offset our carbon emissions by contributing to projects that remove carbon from the atmosphere, such as tree planting.
As we’ll discover, Eevie helps you with both. It analyses your lifestyle to identify areas where you could make changes to reduce your environmental impact, and it also enables you to contribute to worthwhile tree-planting programs across the world.
One of the good things about apps such as Eevie is that they aren’t just good for the planet
– they’re good for our physical and financial health too. Even little changes can go on to significantly reduce our environmental impact while also helping to reduce our energy and shopping bills. CARRIE MARSHALL
