Lite Flights
Air travel is a significant contributor to the atmosphere's dangerous CO₂ levels and emissions could triple by 2050. Lite.Flights was the world's first carbon conscious search engine, ranking flight search results based on their CO₂ emissions. The site turned the traditional price and convenience search-engine models on its head and instead focused on impact.
