Default Re: A �Mapquest� that tells u your impact in emissions & $$

I would love to see a service like this and I think that is would have to be a free site and maybe have some features as a premium service for a small fee if they were looking to have a fee somewhere for the site.

I think that the Green points idea would be a wonderful idea as this would bring in a continuous flow of visitors to the site and using the services, then hopefully people will make changes to their uses in reducing their emissions.

That surely is a wonderful service which could be used ever. I would be willing to prefer it over anything else. Green points is a well preferable idea that could bring out good improvement in the environment to certain extent.

I think that I would use this, but like the others said, It would have to be a feature that was free.

I agree; that would be a wonderful service, but I also agree it would have to be free.
Just a little off topic: Have you gone to Google Earth? That will show you a pretty detailed picture of where you live. You can zoom in quite close. It's free also; try it and you will trip!

I tried that service! It is fantastic. Only problem is, they don't updated enough. If you live in a new home, you may not be able to see it because it wasn't updated recently.

I think that this is a great idea. I would agree that it should be free. I am curious to know though if you gave out green points for using the site how would you know that they are really using the info that is given. I guess what I am getting at is people would use the service just to get the points and then never follow through on what they found.
