Abstract :
Excessive Green House Gas emission and high fuel consumption from vehicles has become not only an environmental but also an economic issue. This work demonstrates CarbonRecorder, a mobile-social application suite that is designed to enable individuals to track their daily vehicular carbon emission, and share them on social networks. It is intended to not only raise social awareness of vehicular carbon emission and encourage more efficient driving behavior, but also serve as a platform for data collection for research in vehicular traffic management, carbon emission, and user behavior analysis in social network based applications.
