Nokia has made available an interesting mobile application that enables users to monitor and track their CO2 emissions. Users can then offset their emissions in an effort to help save the planet.
About we.offset:
A Nokia application that allows you to offset your carbon emissions via the handset and a small donation.
Climate change is one of the most serious threats facing the global society.
We all need to make every effort to reduce our emissions as much as we can and offset the reminder. At Nokia, we are reducing our business air travel in various ways. Carbon dioxide offseting offers us the opportunity to compensate for the CO2 emissions caused by our flights.
