Green Daily

1.) Log onto MakeMeSustainable and set up an account. You will be asked simple questions about your daily life - your house type and size, your heating and water use - etc.

2.) Then, you get a profile. You can upload a picture and description, and each time you log in, you can view your Annual Carbon Reduction, facts about how your lifestyle affects the environment, and simple green tips that are tailored to your lifestyle.

3.) Then comes the fun part. You can use the Carbon and Energy Portfolio Manager (essentially a fancy carbon calculator) which helps you manage your energy costs and see what benefits your green life changes will have on the planet. From month to month, you can see how much you're saving in energy costs, and check off what you've done to lighten your carbon footprint, which shows up in real time on the screen.

4.) Once you've got your own profile raring to go, invite friends and help to influence their green decisions. You can also add the MMS application to Facebook, which shows you the impact that you and your Facebook friends have on the Earth.
