July 9, 2007—MakeMeSustainable, a pioneer of actions-based environmental change and a provider of carbon and energy management tools, has announced the launch of MakeMeSustainable.com, an online community of individuals, groups and local businesses. The site offers a comprehensive toolset for managing carbon and energy consumption, including advanced social networking capabilities for tracking and sharing experiences in real time, says the company.
Users follow a simple three-step process of carbon calculation, actions-based reduction, and long-term community engagement. The site also dispels the myth that ‘going green’ involves a financial sacrifice by providing carbon and energy reducing actions that save consumers and businesses money.
The MakeMeSustainable site includes energy efficient and renewable energy products available through affiliates Energy Federation Incorporated and NativeEnergy, notes the organization. Activities on the site are guaranteed by the MakeMeSustainable Total Transparency Pledge. MakeMeSustainable informs users of the underlying factors related to product offerings, including data assumptions, sources, and links. MakeMeSustainable also discloses its corporate affiliations and any commissions received from user purchases through those affiliates.
The site is officially open to the public. Individuals, groups and local businesses can sign-up and create an account online.
