Green Decade Newton has set a goal to reduce 25% of Newton households' carbon footprints by 25% by 2012. This project aimed to provide a mechanism for Green Decade and its members to monitor and achieve their carbon footprint goals. Recommendations included a design for a new carbon calculator, motivational tools to encourage carbon data collection, carbon footprint reduction materials for members to utilize, and overall recommendations for the usability and content of Green Decade's website.
