The project, Go Curb Carbon, uses an app to encourage ordinary citizens in five cities to reduce their carbon footprint. The app combines a carbon calculator, a green bonus wallet and an event recommendation page. Users can take up carbon reduction challenges in the calculator. Once clearing the challenges, they will get green bonuses with which they can redeem discount or free theater tickets and design products.

The project needs theater or visual arts partners in five cities to offer the redemption items and run the program. The project emphasizes local offerings to locals. Partners have high autonomy in event organization surrounding the themes of urban environmental protection and audience participation.

Practically, partners can share experiences and tour performances and design products across the cities. With the above model, the project aims to bring new audiences into theaters and introduce young artists to the public. Meanwhile, citizens would form low-emissions habits.
