Multi-Transportation-Type Comparison of Carbon Footprints

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for use in conjunction with an electronic device, the computer-readable storage medium storing program instructions that, when executed by the electronic device, causes the electronic device to perform operations comprising:

• obtaining itinerary information associated with an individual;
• determining environmental factors associated with the itinerary information;
• dynamically computing carbon footprints of multiple types of transportation based at least in part on the itinerary information and the environmental factors;
• and
• providing recommendation information comprising the multiple types of transportation and the computed associated carbon footprints.

A method for providing recommendation information, comprising:

• by an electronic device:
• obtaining itinerary information associated with an individual;
• determining environmental factors associated with the itinerary information;
• dynamically computing carbon footprints of multiple types of transportation based at least in part on the itinerary information and the environmental factors;
• and
• providing the recommendation information comprising the multiple types of transportation and the computed associated carbon footprints.
