Vehicle carbon footprint management

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory, coupled to the processor, comprising instructions that when executed by the processor are configured to:
• determine a first carbon footprint of a first mode of transportation and a second carbon footprint of a second mode of transportation, wherein the first mode of transportation is a primary mode of transportation and the second carbon footprint is less than the first carbon footprint;
• responsive to the first carbon footprint is above a threshold, calculate a period of time the second mode of transportation is utilized to negate an amount above the threshold;
• and
• send a notification to use the second mode of transportation for the period of time.

A computer readable storage medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:

• determining a first carbon footprint of a first mode of transportation and a second carbon footprint of a second mode of transportation, wherein the first mode of transportation is a primary mode of transportation and the second carbon footprint is less than the first carbon footprint;
• responsive to the first carbon footprint being above a threshold, calculating a period of time the second mode of transportation is utilized to negate an amount above the threshold;
• and
• sending a notification to use the second mode of transportation for the period of time.
