Find the Personal Environmental Impact Report at Wired NextFest
The Personal Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) is at Wired NextFest starting today up until October 12! Come check us out (and some 40 other amazing projects) if you’re in the Chicago area. Did I mention it’s free? Yeah, it’s free, so you really have no excuse. What better way to spend an afternoon than walking around “the premier showcase of the global innovations transforming our world?”
What is PEIR?
In a nutshell, PEIR is a way to track how you interact with the environment. You upload GPS data with your mobile phone, and PEIR estimates both how you impact the environment and how the environment impacts you. What is your carbon footprint? How often are you exposed to high levels of pollution? Login to your online personal profile to find out.
See for Yourself
Anyways, I can describe our project all the live long day, but nothing will compare to actually trying it out for yourself, so when you’re at NextFest (because I know you’re coming), come find PEIR and check out our demos. If you can’t make it, don’t worry, you can also take PEIR out for a spin at the website.
UPDATE : 2008.10.03 Read our press release on Business Wire about PEIR at NextFest.
