Mashup the Garden of Eden with the most social insects on Earth, and what you are left with is EdenBee, a social network focused on climate change and helping people reduce their carbon footprints. The site encourages its users to make eco-friendly decisions by creating groups, making friends, and discussing their goals.
Like most social networks, Edenbee provides you with a personal profile but instead of just a name and picture, users have "Lifestyle Profiling" and "Carbon Logbooks" that help individualize their experience on the site.
After answering a list of questions about your lifestyle, Edenbee is then ready to recommend goals that you should follow in order to live an environmentally-friendly life. Whether it be keeping the lights off, carpooling, or recycling, the site acts like a helping hand to guide you on making worthwhile changes in your daily activities.
After re-evaluating their lifestyle and setting some goals, users can begin to measure their carbon footprints by tracking their activities in the logbook and seeing their progress overtime through the Carbon Timeline. In addition, whenever people feel like they need advice or support they can share stories and helpful tips.
Currently, there are hundreds of "green" web 2.0 sites and social networks across the internet. For instance, MakeMeSustainable, a site that is on our list of websites that are aimed at saving the planet, offers exactly the same service as Edenbee.
