Timely, intuitive, impactful

Thanks to Joro, I am a lot more aware of my own carbon footprint and am able to cultivate an intuitive sense for small and big actions I can take to minimize it. It is a new way of being. I am also more thoughtful about big ticket items (carbon footprint wise) and find myself making better informed choices. For me, this also helps temper anxiety that I would otherwise have (I believe climate anxiety is real and increasing over time as our planet faces harmful effects of climate change). Thank you Team Joro and keep at it! Your purpose-driven company is the change we need.

Action over anxiety

Commons has turned my climate anxiety and thinkwashing into manageable, meaningful, and actionable lifestyle changes that help me feel part of a communal effort treat our planet with more respect. The app’s UX/UI is implemented in a succinct, engaging, and approachable way. The information and topics they highlight are relevant and interesting. Overall, I feel that I’m learning while taking action, and the knowledge I’ve gained from using this app gives me more inspiration and hope for the future.

Simple, well designed, and actionable

LOVE this app! I’ve been meaning to figure out how to take personal steps to minimize my own impact on climate change for years, but it has always seemed too huge to tackle and too hard to measure. This app makes it really easy to visualize your current impact and take steps to minimize it. You can also see how you compare to others which is really nice. Love the design and feel like I’m doing something positive!
