Saving the planet to create a better future it’s up to everyone working together. New instruments using an API are an innovative solution to analysing and decreasing our negative impact on the environment.
The greatest global challenge we have now is climate change. The window of opportunity to keep global warming between 1.5 and 2 degrees Celsius is rapidly shrinking, necessitating rapid, significant, and mainly immediate emissions cuts across all sectors of the economy. Net-zero targets and offset difficult-to-reduce emissions require large-scale carbon removal. All paths to a 1.5-degree-Celsius future need carbon reduction on a far larger scale than is now possible. Sustainability challenges demand innovation and funding to be solved.
The importance of information technology in achieving carbon neutrality is likely undervalued. New tools have appeared regarding your business’s carbon footprint: the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated by a person, event, organisation, service, area, or product, expressed in carbon dioxide equivalents. These carbon footprint API calculators measure the amount of carbon dioxide released per year to assist companies and individuals become more eco-friendly and help everyone achieve the desired carbon neutrality.
Therefore, tracking your CO2 emissions to reduce environmental impact (e.g. air pollution in cities, hazardous acid rain, coastal and ocean acidification, glacier and polar ice melting, and so forth) can make the difference. For that reason, we share some of these new APIs to employ in your daily lives.
CarbonAPI
CarbonAPI supports your industry in achieving climate goals and instilling social responsibility in your organisation, allowing you to embrace sustainability while increasing your commercial viability. The API estimates emissions in production units per hour, material consumption units per hour, or whatever units the emission factor is represented in and generates analytical graphs of your usage for transparent reporting.
Send up to a year’s worth of carbon footprint data. CarbonAPI will categorise the input and, using several formulas, will calculate your carbon footprint in kg. To go on the path to net-zero emissions, use this all-in-one API that’s simple to integrate!.
Cloverly
The Cloverly API Sustainability-as-a-Service platform uses real-time calculations to link the carbon emission infrastructure to businesses, consumers, and organisations. It estimates CO2 release using freely accessible data about the use case.
Cloverly sequesters, avoids, reduces, and offsets carbon emissions through a worldwide network of trusted providers (keep in mind Offsets must be registered and tracked by well recognised and respectable organisations in the voluntary markets to be publicly available via the API). In the dashboard, you may filter by project type or location. Or work to find a project tailored to your company or organisation’s needs.
Climatiq
Reliable knowledge guides the best choices. Thus, Climatiq‘s goal is to give you intelligible emissions data so you can make the most significant, long-term decisions for your company. Its simple API allows you to collect reports, automate CO2 estimates, and make data-driven decisions on how to make your firm more sustainable quickly.
Use the API with any device or server-based application. It’s spread around the globe, managing logic at the edge and dependably delivering ultra-low latency and processing time (not to mention emissions!) Climatiq makes it simple to initiate and scale successful change by assisting you in measuring, analysing, and understanding how and where your organisation produces greenhouse gases.
Establishing a sustainable economy and averting a future of disastrous climate change demands –more than ever– courageous leadership, innovation, and execution. What are we waiting for?
