Series 3, episode 8 of the Sustainability Champion's Podcast!

Introducing Sanchali Pal, Founder of The Commons Earth, a company that specialises in helping consumers measure and reduce their carbon footprint. 

For Sanchali, she saw first hand the impacts the climate crisis is having on people when working in Ethiopia and India. When returning to the US, Sanchali began tracking her carbon footprint in an excel spreadsheet, and through tracking her purchasing, and other activity, was able to cut her emissions by over 30%. For Sanchali - her life is richer, healthier, and happier because of it. 

“We have an intuition for other important metrics in our lives – dollars, calories, steps. Soon we’ll have an intuition for carbon, too.”- Sanchali Pal. 

So how does The Commons Earth app work? 

Every spending choice is a climate choice, and every purchase is an opportunity for action. 

The products and services we buy require resources from the Earth to produce. Those are carbon costs, and they’re part of being alive. 

The Commons Earth helps you grow your carbon institution so we can shrink our collective impact. 

Track your emission, act on how you are building a lifestyle that is more in balance with the planet, offset to compensate for unavoidab;e commissions, and multiplying - getting more people to have more balance. 

It’s that simple. 

In this week’s podcast, we learn more about The Commons app, and how it works. We also discuss Sanchali’s background and the inspiration she had in developing this app - also what’s next for The Commons Earth as they begin to scale out! 

This week’s podcast guest features Claire McGovern from Rhyme Studio.
