Overview

Problem

In average, one person in the U.S. produces about 4.5 pounds of waste each day, 267 million tons of trash per year (2020 study by the EPA)

Mindful of this, various eco-friendly products are being released but it's difficult to recognize which products are truly eco-friendly products

Difficult to realize why eco-friendly products are more ecologically good for the environment than other products

Competitive Analysis

I did competitive analysis of two similar service apps:
Grove App and GreenDay App
In short, neither app provides effective solutions to the problems.
