The 2020 or Bust app was specifically designed to track and manage measurable results toward ending the crisis. It challenges users to take ending climate change into their own hands, by giving them a choice of actions they can take to reduce their carbon usage.<\/p>\n

How do we know if our actions are making a difference? <\/b><\/p>\n

Depending on the actions they select and their location, they are then given a 2020 carbon target to work toward. All the targets are aggregated into one global target so that people can see the direct connection between their daily actions and the progress of humanity in bridging the critical 2020 emission gap. Ending the climate crisis becomes a game that anyone can play and that, together as a global community, we can win!<\/p>\n

The crucial next step for ending the climate crisis is to get diverse communities all over the world to take actions and track their results. Currently, the app has only one set of actions for everyone. While those actions make sense for adults in the USA, they are not well suited to the rest of the world. So for the app to be a helpful tool, the messages and actions need to be tailored and made relevant for more and different communities.<\/p>\n

Leveraging the existing app, here some research and implementation challenges:<\/p>\n
