Sustainable Browsing is a browser extension designed to help users lower their online carbon footprints. Developed as a research prototype by kellyfransen97 at Eindhoven University of Technology, this extension provides valuable data insights on your carbon emissions, offers pop-up advice, and allows you to compare your emissions to that of others.

With the increasing environmental impact of the internet infrastructure, it is crucial to be mindful of our data consumption. Small adjustments in our online habits can result in significant reductions in carbon emissions. For example, simply sending one less "thank you" email per adult in the UK could save a staggering 16,433 tonnes of carbon annually, equivalent to removing 3,334 diesel cars from the road [1].

By downloading Sustainable Browsing, you actively contribute to ongoing research on online carbon footprints. The extension collects anonymous usage data and may request your participation in short surveys to study how internet users can be guided towards lowering their online carbon footprints.
