What it does

A carbon footprint calculation API for transport.

Trip to Carbon automates travel related carbon emission calculation with simple tools like the Trip to Carbon API & Carbon Calculator.

There are plans to make the core functionality of trip to carbon open source soon. Current Objective: developing API wrappers for different languages. If this is something you may be interested in then join the discord :) The API uses two methods outlined by the IPCC, DEFRA U.K & GHG Protocol. Here is a document detailing the calculation method The free API has a rate limit of about 5 requests per minute. Authenticated requests using API keys have a higher limit of 20 requests/min. The self-hosted APIs will not have one set by Trip to Carbon. The API is free to use at the current rate limits.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
