EcoAppleseed Portal
ONTILITY's EcoAppleseed™ portal is a community's dedicated, renewable chat-room, much like an eco or green “Facebook©” page. EcoAppleseed™ portal is a community-based, web 2.0, live portal.
ONTILITY’s EcoAppleseed™ portal is also an EcoCommunity™ enablement portal. This means, it is a “live” portal, updated in real-time, and dedicated to a specific community. These communities are special in that they have adopted sustainability efforts and have as their goal promoting, implementing, and then monitoring these sustainability efforts. By monitoring the efforts and encouraging community members to participate in this "green chat room" space, these communities are able to increase local participation and further their community members' knowledge of renewable and efficiency programs and solutions and be empowered to implement them in their own homes and businesses. In short, the EcoAppleseed™ portal is the central, live portal dedicated to everything green and ecologically aware for a specific community.
The EcoAppleseed™ Portal Added Features
