Benjamin Levicek If the coronavirus pandemic has a positive effect on any aspect, it is less environmental pollution. People move significantly less and due to limited tourism, the carbon footprint in the atmosphere has been significantly reduced. The vast majority of citizens, myself included, want the world to return to normal as soon as possible, but I believe that with the time we have gained, we have been given space to think about how to operate more ecologically and thus protect our planet from global warming. If you don't know how to live a more ecological life, believe that mobile phone applications will help you with this as well.

Recola
Would you like to stop using public transport to get around the city, but you don't have enough money to buy a car or a bike, or you don't want to use your own car to emit unnecessary emissions? The Rekola application is used to rent bicycles, electric bicycles or scooters for fast riding around the city. You can find a parked bike near you on your smartphone, scan its QR code, and then its lock will appear on the phone screen, which you can use to unlock it. You can ride both a bicycle and an electric bike and scooter practically anywhere, but the device can only be parked in the designated zones in the application. If you plan to drive Rekola often, it is advisable to purchase a MultiSport card, with which you get 2 hours of driving every day included in the price. Rekola currently only works in Prague, Brno, Olomouc, České Budějovice, Frýdek-Místek and young Boleslav, but if you are a resident of these cities, I definitely recommend trying the program.
You can install the Rekola application here
BlaBlaCar
Moving around on a bike or scooter is a pleasant thing, but when moving to a place several hundred kilometers away, it is not entirely worth it - unless you are a top athlete. But this is where BlaBlaCar comes into play. Individual car drivers enter here which place they are going to and how many seats they have in their car. You can reserve a seat, make arrangements with the driver at the meeting point and "combine" for the ride itself. Whether you are a driver and want to save on gas, or a student who is careful not to spend an extra crown, you will definitely use BlaBlaCar. With the BlaBlaCar app, the ride you take will become an ecological carpool.

joulebug
If you are really serious about ecology, but you do not find enough motivation in yourself, your smartphone with the JouleBug application installed can become a pocket motivator. In this application, you write down all the ecological actions you have done during the day and receive points for them. In this way, you can compete with friends or other people, which makes it really easy to manage to sort waste, waste less water or turn off the lights on time.

Ecosia
Did you know that you can help our planet even by simply browsing the Internet? If you download the Ecosia browser, which uses its own search engine of the same name, all of its profit from displayed ads is invested in planting trees, which are important for our nature not only because there is enough oxygen in the atmosphere. Ecosia is also committed to not storing, selling or abusing your data for advertising purposes. Thanks to this program, you do not have to step out of your comfort zone, but you are still helping nature.
