Olive Earth provides different social applications with an objective of improving the overall footprint for each individual, corporate and societies as a whole, with the objective of contributing towards reducing the overall footprint for the earth. Some of the key applications are:
etc.
It's easy if you remember the three Rs of personal success in making the planet sustainable which are reduce, reuse, recycle, but very difficult to implement them. Olive Earth takes the social networking to a different level by enabling ahead of the curve social applications that enables FREE community applications to reduce the community carbon footprint and enable individual action to improve green orientation.Some of the key apps that we are trying to make available for you are:
Rentals & Pre-Owned : While a lot of organizations are investing in a cradle-to-cradle design strategy and focusing on recyclable modular designs, but till now it is a innovation driven market. So while lot of these core resources may be recycled, there is a lot of wastage in the natural resources used for consumables like wood, rubber, metals, minerals, and more, along with a huge-load of energy. There is no denying the fact that the lesser we buy, the less is the strain on natural resources and downstream wastage. Packaging is actaully a huge contributor to waste and emissions, while recycling focuses on the core product, focusing on packaging has so far been only limited. With all this RENTING IS TRULY A VIRTUE. This apps will enable you to post and rent out rentable stuff. We also help you sell you preowned stuff rather than junking it. It is good business and good for the earth.
Car Pooling: Contrary to the perception Car Pooling will actually reduce your total commuting time, besides being incredibly beneficial to the environment. In some research it has been seen that 5% reduction in vehicle traffic in busy roads of ours actually reduces travel time by 5%. Do your math assuming 25% of the cars come off the road through a car pooling culture. We have to take the first step to make this happen. So please car pool.
Our mission is to enable newer social collaboration platforms for you with responsible resource consumption as the eventual ambition. I was deeply inspired by Andrew Winston who is a leading thinker of sustainability and he mentions that we have to take almost heretical steps to get out of the situation that we are in. And this is our effort to enable some of the carbon and energy reduction Social Apps here at Olive Earth and it will be our constant endeavor to bring in new apps for you on continuous basis. Most of these applications are in the beta phase yet enable substantial improvement in our footprint. We are making an effort to ensure they are delivered to you free. If you share our vision and have ideas on newer apps or are a developer who can contribute, please contact us.
While we provision the platform to enable collaboration and integration, we believe there is no substitute for responsible and sensitive action. We request you to be responsible for your action and leverage the applications provided to help yourself and help the cause of global sustainability. Olive Earth will not be responsible for the consequences of your usage of these applications. Please use your discretion in using these applications, which can significantly improve your sustainability orientation.
