Creative Citizen – How-To For A Difference
Creative Citizen™ equips individuals and communities to move forward in the quest to become responsible global citizens. Instead of focusing on the fear induced by water shortages, expanding landfills, smoggy cities and the specter of global warming, we focus on one action at a time, knowing that a series of small actions can lead to massive results.
In other words, Creative Citizen™ serves as a repository of content o
n accomplishing certain tasks or projects, built around solutions that are beneficial to the environment, and sometimes to the user’s wallet. In all, the site focuses on five metrics for savings: Water, money, emissions, electricity, and waste (i.e. trash). As users agree to follow very solutions, the savings accrue on their profile to show their total savings according to VentureBeat.
Users can submit a possible solution, and the community votes, thus weeding out the flaff. Tying it down to a monetary value provides a nice touch.
