Pegada Ambiental

Environmental Footprint is an application developed to support the monitoring and analysis of environmental indicators in schools participating in the Eco Dom project.

The platform allows users to record data related to resource consumption and environmental practices of educational institutions, contributing to the generation of indicators that help assess the environmental impact of schools and promote sustainability actions.

The application was created based on studies by the Environmental Footprint Scientific Initiation Group of the Dom Helder Câmara Higher Education School, which developed an analysis methodology based on different environmental indicators.

Through the application, school teams, scholarship recipients, and project participants can record important information that assists in calculating the Environmental Footprint of the institutions.

🌱 Main Features

* Registration of environmental data from participating schools
* Calculation of Environmental Footprint indicators
* Monitoring of natural resource consumption
* Data entry with validation
* Monitoring of schools' environmental performance
* Access to sustainability information and tips

📊 Indicators Evaluated

The application allows the collection of data used in the analysis of different environmental indicators, such as:

Water consumption

Energy consumption

Paper use

Waste management

Other environmental practices developed by schools

This data is used to generate analyses that help to understand the environmental impact of institutions and identify opportunities for improvement.

🎯 Application Objective

The main objective of the platform is to facilitate the collection and organization of environmental data, allowing researchers, students, and school teams to easily and practically monitor the evolution of environmental indicators of participating schools.

In addition, the application encourages environmental awareness and stimulates the adoption of more sustainable practices in the school environment.
