Application to reduce the ecological footprint of your shopping basket

Aims of the Project

Improve the social knowledge about the ecological impact of the food we buy by developing an app.

Summary

Food consumption is a good target in order to reduce the ecological impact of our lives, but neither the labeling nor the complex information necessary to take good decisions helps its implementation. Therefore, we want to develop an app that, in a simple way (through a series of variables and a color code), can assess the environmental footprint of the food purchased by the user. Thereby, citizens can take on the problem of global warming directly and try to change their relationship with the planet to a more fair and sustainable one.
