Lowsoot, a Bengaluru-based start-up, believes that everyone in the world should be able to wear the badge of #CarbonNeutrality with pride. Set up in 2021, they have been guiding individuals and organisations to track down their carbon footprint with realistic advice and practical steps.
Sachin Sengar, its founder and CEO, shares, “We are building software and digital tools to bridge the journey of individuals towards Net-Zero.” Net-Zero is a state in which the emission of all greenhouse gases is balanced out in the atmosphere. “With the help of the Co2 calculator on our website, an individual can calculate their carbon footprint. We analyse your activities and provide you with solutions to reduce your footprint by adapting to some eco-friendly practices. There are some unavoidable footprint that cannot be reduced, so you can offset them by supporting some green initiatives,” he elaborates.
