Sustainability in Action

Welcome to the EarthShare NC Sustainability App!

Nov. 11-18, 2024

Through the EarthShare Engage mobile App, you can learn about  sustainability actions you can take and commitments you can make in your daily life to take care of our natural environment. As you log actions through the week, you will also be able to see and share your impact in real time! 

EarthShare NC is offering this free app experience to encourage individuals to easily incorporate sustainable habits into their daily lives. This is a great opportunity to practice your sustainability commitments, be inspired by your own impact, and share your journey with old and new friends!

When you log an action, the impact is calculated AND points are earned.  Points are for those of us motivated by a little competition.  Points will not be counted until the challenge starts, but any actions logged before this time will count towards to log limits (see more in the FAQ section below).

Watch the video below to see how to get started calculating your carbon footprint – we recommend having your latest energy bill handy to answer questions. Please note, the below video represents an IOS user and a different challenge previously hosted so actions will not be the same. For Android users, your navigation menu will be located at the top left.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, all actions have set limits to help balance typical usage. They also are intended to help people branch out and explore other Actions vs. logging the same action over and over throughout the day. If you’re hitting these limits, wait a bit and try again, remembering to try and log as you complete actions throughout your day.
