Carbon Meter

An Android app developed by ViralMesh, Carbon Meter encourages users to stay green in two ways. Firstly, it tracks how much CO2 emissions you save when doing Green Friendly activities, such as walking or biking instead of driving in a car or taking public transportation. Secondly, the app rewards those who save the World from Carbon emissions by offering coupons and special deals. The more you go green, the higher the level you get, and the more coupons you receive. With Carbon Meter, not only are you saving the environment, but you are saving some cash at the same time.

PedNav

If you want to rack up those rewards that Carbon Meter is ready to dish out, PedNav for the iPhone is a great way to get started on that. PedNav makes getting around cities both easy and efficient. Just tell the app your plans of the day, such as which stores you are going to or landmarks you want to see, and PedNav will create personalized itinerary that will help you get to those locations the quickest and safest way possible on foot or by bike. It even tells you how long you can spend at each place if you want to make it to all of your destinations in one day. A great app for any tourist looking to stay green on vacation.

GreenMeter

While Carbon Meter is great for those of us who try not to drive, for many people using a car is a necessity. Available on the iPhone and iPod Touch, GreenMeter turns everyday driving into an initiative to go green. While driving, GreenMeter uses the iPhone’s accelerometer to detect how fast you are going, the G-Forces you are exerting on turns, and how aerodynamic you are keeping the car. It then offers tips and suggestions on how to make driving adventures more Eco-friendly, like suggesting a steady cruising speed or teaching smoother driving techniques. For the Eco-minded driver, this app is a must have.

Avego

Fewer emissions, less traffic on the road, and savings for many of its users. Everybody wins.

According to car insurance companies around the country, there are indeed specific types of food that are considered more dangerous than others. These types of food are considered dangerous because you are more likely to rear end someone if you are eating (or drinking) them while driving. There are also specific types of food that if you’re eating, your reaction time may be slower than at other times.

1. Coffee is most likely to spill out of the cup even with a lid when you hit a bump.

2. Hot soup is also likely to spill out of the cup when you hit a bump because many people drink hot soup like they drink coffee while driving.

3. Tacos are an extremely dangerous food to eat while driving because it is a proven fact that any food that can disassemble itself while you are driving is sure to distract you.

4. Chili dogs are dangerous for the same reasons as tacos; however, they are also much messier and will drip down the front of your shirt, thus causing you to be even more distracted.

5. Hamburgers are considered one of the most dangerous foods to eat while driving because you eat them with your hands and the grease then gets on the steering wheel, possibly making it very slippery.

6. Ribs and wings. They are messy and distracting and you will lick your fingers while eating them.

7. Fried chicken will also cause your hands and the steering wheel to get greasy and be slippery.

8. Jelly donuts are dangerous because no one has ever eaten one without watching the jelly ooze out of the middle.

9. Soda can spill.
