8 iPhone Apps to Help Save the Planet

Over at TheAppleBlog, Nick Santilli has rounded up a few iPhone apps to help consumers “go green.” He takes a look at tools to help you find green living tips and retailers, as well as a couple apps for measuring your environmental footprint. The free shopgreen app seems especially neat — answer questions about your choices and behaviors to earn discounts at participating retailers.

They may not be the eco-geekiest tools in the App Store, but check out his list and suggest a few of your own. Tendril, perhaps? Or maybe you found a winner on our list of apps to save gas. Head on over and check out the full list!

  • Visible Energy just introduced the UFO powerstrip with an iPhone app to read power consumption and cost at the Green:Net conference yesterday.

    The iPhone app is called Energy UFO.
