Over at YouSustain we recently added a new feature to more easily find the best ways to become more personally sustainable. We call them Recommendations, and you can view the various sustainable solutions by:

  • Popularity
  • Lowest Cost
  • Most CO2 Reduced
  • Most Cash Savings

We have already had a lot of great feedback on this, because different people have different priorities. Some people want to save the most CO2 they can. Others want to save the most money.

The popularity view is a great way to see what others are actually doing in real life. We all hear about the bigger ideas like converting your house to solar or buying a hybrid car, but that’s not feasible for everyone. The popular solutions tend to be the small, low-expense, ones. However, these small ideas add up to a large impact when several are done together.
