"In April, we asked Gavin Starks the Founder and CEO of\u00A0AMEE\u00A0if his carbon data engine could\u00A0save the world from mass extinction.\u00A0Starks said that in the future, as data in the universe becomes increasingly connected through mobile technology, AMEE\u2019s information will only become more valuable.\u00A0Starks said everything will get faster, easier and cheaper; but with more data, comes more intelligence, which he hopes will be enough to save us from avoiding mass extinction.\r\n\r\nAMEE, which stands for the \u201CAvoiding Mass Extinctions Engine\u201D is tracking and connecting all the carbon-data on Earth, creating an aggregation platform capable of coordinating the world\u2019s entire carbon consumption data. To further its mission,\u00A0AMEE has just released\u00A0ALF, which stands for\u00A0AMEE Location Footprinter, an app that tracks your carbon footprint based on your Foursquare check-ins. ALF uses this check-in data to calculate your CO2 transportation footprint and sends you an email with a summary and detail of your week's movements:\r\n\r\nHere's Martin's from Manchester, UK:\r\n\r\nAnd here's mine from Brooklyn, NY...\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAMEE will host a Green Hackathon in London this January, so expect even more energy efficient hacks in 2012.\r\n\r\n\u27A4\u00A0ALF"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
