According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This project, titled "EcoEdge: A Smart Carbon Footprint Tracking"focuses on developing a digital platform that enables users to monitor, analyze, and reduce their carbon footprint in an easy and effective manner. The aim is to create a user-friendly and intelligent system that promotes sustainable living by helping individuals understand the environmental impact of their daily activities. The system allows users to input data related to everyday activities such as travel, food consumption, and shopping habits. Based on these inputs, the platform calculates the corresponding carbon emissions using predefined emission factors and algorithms. The calculated data is stored and analyzed to provide meaningful insights into the user's carbon footprint over time. To enhance usability, the system includes an interactive dashboard that displays realtime emission statistics, graphical analysis, and historical trends. It also provides personalized recommendations and suggestions to help users reduce their environmental impact, such as adopting eco-friendly transportation, sustainable food choices, and mindful consumption practices. One of the key features of this project is its ability to track user behavior continuously and offer actionable insights through a simple and intuitive interface. Additional features such as emission history tracking, goal setting, and awareness prompts make the system more engaging and effective in encouraging sustainable habits. This innovation contributes to global sustainability goals, particularly Sustainable Development Goal 13 (Climate Action), by promoting awareness and reduction of carbon emissions at an individual level. It provides a practical, accessible, and scalable solution for students, households, and environmentally conscious users, demonstrating how digital technology can play a significant role in addressing climate change and fostering a greener future."
