Cool Tool

Overall Rating:

[05/28/2009]  As someone who works for a print/web design company that is cognizant of our impact on the world, this application certainly highlights how our business activities affect the greater environment. Never really considered our Carbon Footprint as a cost of doing business. This is very enlightening and will definitely affect how our company makes decisions about our activities in the future in order to reduce our carbon footprint and perhaps save/make money at the same time. If nothing else, companies who would use this application will be trend setters in changing the business culture to not just thinking about money/profits, but about the activities that make the money/profits at the same time saving the environment. What a win-win proposition. I would love to see the profile results of a manufacturer, brewery, or restaurant as I'm sure it would be a lot different than what our company's profile would be. Keep up the good work, Intuit!
