Myplan8, a start-up providing a free, easy-to-use carbon dioxide emissions (CO2e) tracker that provides insight into the carbon footprint caused by our day-to-day lifestyle, regular travel and food consumption habits has launched a carbon directory in eight categories. 
 
The start-up has claimed to simplify carbon emissions for water usage, energy use, food habits, pet animals, waste management, lifestyle, day-to-day activities, travel and electronics used. 

The company has listed almost 100 parameters to help individuals reduce their carbon footprint in these categories. 
 
“We are working towards building a carbon-conscious lifestyle”, said Koushik Sur, Co-founder of Myplan8. He further added, 

"From the moment we are born, we are all consumers. The world is expected to have 9.7 billion people by the year 2050. If we don't change the way we use things now, the fast-dwindling natural resources on our planet will face more problems. With ‘Carbon Directory’ we are trying to help individuals understand their impact on the environment and help take conscious calls. The objective is to help people make good choices for the environment and future generations. This is just a humble beginning and we will add more and more products for environment-conscious people. .”
 
Nidhi Mehra, Co-founder of Myplan8, said, “The WWF Living Planet Index shows that between 1970 and 2012, the world's biodiversity dropped by 58%. It is the need of the hour that every human being on this planet comes together and makes conscious efforts to make better consumption choices for our planet earth and ensure Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns is one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). With minor changes in consumption habits, we can contribute humorously to the environment.”
