Project Overview

In an era where environmental sustainability is not just a choice but a necessity, the CO2 Reduction Project stands out by providing users with a simple analysis of their carbon footprint. Leveraging data and guidelines from the European Environment Agency (EEA), the project focuses on the environmental impacts of transportation, among other factors contributing to carbon emissions.

Features

• Energy Consumption Analysis: Assess the carbon footprint resulting from various energy sources.
• Waste Production Evaluation: Understand the impact of different waste production patterns.
• Business Travel Insights: Gain insights into how business travel contributes to overall carbon emissions.
• Tailored Recommendations: Receive personalized suggestions to reduce your carbon footprint based on your assessment results.

Technologies Used

This project is built using cutting-edge technologies and frameworks to ensure high performance and scalability:

• Python 3.11
• aiohttp 3.9.3
• asyncpg
• psycopg2
• PostgreSQL 14
